Subaru brake calipers are one of the main components for your brake system. They work hand in hand with the brake pads and rotor discs to slow and stop your car.

What do Brake Calipers do?

Brake calipers are essentially clamps that press your pads into the rotors located behind your car's wheels. They are the mechanism that are pressurized by brake fluid when you press your brake pedal. The clamping of the pads to the rotor create friction which is necessary to stop your vehicle.

Since calipers are made of iron and located outside the vehicle near the wheels, they take tons of use and abuse over the years. From corrosion and lack of regular maintenance, after several years or above 70,000 miles, you may need to change your calipers. Signs that your Subaru calipers are going bad are:

Grinding noises when braking
Pulling or jerking to one side when slowing down
Visible rust on the caliper arms
Loss of brake pressure
