What happens if my brake pads wear down too much?

If brake pads wear down to the metal backing, they can cause significant damage to your brake rotors. This can lead to a much more expensive repair than simply replacing the pads and wear sensors.

How do I know if I need to replace these wear leads?

These sensors are designed to make a noise when the brake pads are worn down. If you hear a squealing or grinding sound from your brakes, it's a good indication that your pads are low and the sensors may need to be replaced along with the pads.

Do these wear leads come with new brake pads?

No, these are just the wear lead sensors. They are designed to be installed with new brake pads. You will need to purchase brake pads separately.
