Brake Pads | Brake Rotors | Brake Calipers

The Toyota RAV4 brake system is comprised of the following key components:

• Backing plate & return spring holds your Toyota RAV4 braking system together so it can function accurately.
• Heat Shield or dust shield helps prevent grime buildup thereby lengthening the life of your brake system.
• Brake Calipers squeeze the brake pads up against your Toyota RAV4 rotors to slow or stop your vehicle.
• Parking Brake cable or adjuster is a steel cable used to initiate the parking brakes. When the lever is used or pedal depressed, the cable pulls the calipers or drums to initiate the parking brake of your Toyota RAV4.
• Anti-lock Braking System pump and a computer allows your vehicle to keep traction on the road continuously.
• Rotors also called discs or drums are what your pads grip in order to stop the wheels from spinning. There are several types of brake rotors (Blank or "smooth" rotors, Cross-drilled rotors, slotted, drilled and slotted). Let Stevinson Toyota East find the best type of brake rotors for your Toyota RAV4
• Brake Hoses transmit brake fluid from the brake line to your Toyota RAV4 brake calipers. It's made of rubber and is flexible so that it can move with the suspension. These hoses need to be examined repeatedly for cracks and other symptoms of deterioration. Check your Toyota RAV4 maintenance schedule for more details on when your hoses should be replaced.
• Master cylinder or hydraulic cylinder converts the pressure you put on your Toyota RAV4 brake pedals to power the rest of your brake system by feeding brake fluid into the brake circuit.
• Brake pads or shoes are the parts that physically make contact with your brake rotor and apply pressure or friction to slow and stop your wheels from turning. It's immensely vital to keep Toyota RAV4 brake pads fresh by replacing them as they experience quite a bit of stress each time they are used. Check your Toyota RAV4 maintenance schedule for the suggested mileage intervals.

Brake pads consist of two layers: a metal backing plate and a high-friction material that includes rubber, fiber, carbon & other materials. Over time, brake pads wear down and can even start squeaking. This noise is the metal backing plate & the rotor touching, which also acts as a safety measure to let you know your brakes need repair. This can also cause damage to your rotors and, in some cases, can even start distorting them. In addition to serving as a "platform" for the friction material, the backing plate also protects the brake caliper from disproportionate heat buildup.

Brake calipers cover the rotors and contain pistons. The amount of pistons depends on the type of brake system. Brake fluid from the master cylinder forces these pistons to maneuver the brake pads against the disc. The brake caliper will equally distribute pressure against the brake disc. Mainly, the more pistons in a caliper, the more equally the pressure from the pads is spread onto the brake disc.

How much do new rotors cost?

It depends on whether you need your Toyota RAV4 rotors replaced or simply resurfaced. At Stevinson Toyota East we'll have one of our Toyota RAV4 technicians examine your car to give you a recommendation and estimate. As stated prior, since we are able to order components directly from Toyota we can save you time and cash replacing your RAV4 rotors.>
