Each part of your front and rear brake system requires routine maintenance and repairs, but some parts may last longer than others. The calipers will typically last the longest as the brake pads tend to undergo the most wear in the short-term. Your brake pads themselves should undergo inspection and possible replacement once every 30,000 miles or so to ensure they maintain optimal thickness to provide stopping power. You can also check the brake fluid of your Nissan, which has a reservoir clearly visible when you pop the hood. Refilling of brake fluid constitutes a necessity to maintaining the integrity of the brake pads themselves as lack of fluid can cause the to wear down much faster.

If you remain unsure whether or not your front or rear brakes need repair, keep in mind some of the signs and symptoms. You might notice strange sounds, like squealing, screeching, or knocking when you hit the brake pedal. You may also notice the pedal itself soft or spongy to the touch. If you notice any of these signs, you should schedule an appointment for brake repair immediately. Failure to maintain brakes can lead to serious dangers later on down the road if the car cannot provide proper stopping power.
