Brake System Performance & Fluid Exchange Maintenance

Cadillac models have powerful hydraulic brakes that quickly generate the extreme friction necessary to resist forward momentum. Pushing the brake pedal triggers the master cylinder to send energy through brake fluid into the caliper pistons that extend and clamp high-friction pads against rotor discs bolted to the wheels. Brake fluid has excellent hydraulic properties, but its life is limited by hygroscopicity – it absorbs moisture that can boil and compress. General Motors recommends routine brake fluid exchange service at the mileage/time detailed in the Cadillac owner’s manual. Check your brake fluid exchange interval and contact us when you need certified service at Frank Kent Cadillac of Arlington.
