GM Brake Calipers

The Role of Brake Calipers in Your Buick’s Stopping Power

Brake calipers ensure your Buick stops safely and efficiently. They clamp down on the brake pads, squeezing against the rotor to slow or stop the vehicle. Without properly functioning calipers, your Buick could experience longer stopping distances, poor braking performance, or even complete brake failure. Whether you're driving an Encore or a Lacrosse, brake calipers are a crucial part of the braking system that ensures your safety on the road.

What Do Brake Calipers Do?

Brake calipers control the pressure applied to the brake pads. When you press the brake pedal, hydraulic fluid moves into the calipers, pushing the brake pads against the rotor. This action generates the friction needed to slow or stop the vehicle. If your brake calipers fail, the entire braking system becomes less effective, so choosing high-quality, genuine Buick parts is important when replacing them. Lower-priced aftermarket calipers may not provide the same level of reliability or performance.

Signs It’s Time to Replace Your Brake Calipers

If your Buick is pulling to one side while braking, making unusual noises, or if the brake pedal feels soft or unresponsive, it’s likely time to inspect your brake calipers. Uneven brake pad wear or brake fluid leaks indicate that the calipers may need replacing. Replacing them with genuine Buick parts ensures they will fit and function as intended, maintaining your vehicle’s braking system at its best.

Why Choose Genuine Buick Brake Calipers
