How Long Will My Ram’s Brakes Last?

There are a multitude of factors that will determine the lifespan of your Ram’s brakes. And while your owner’s manual will list an appropriate service interval to let you know when it’s time to come in for service, if you routinely tow by the ton or pack in the payload, it’s possible that your brakes might wear down before the milestone comes around. Lots of sudden, hard stops can also wear down your Ram’s brakes more quickly.

How Do I Know if My Ram’s Brakes Need Service?

There are a few indicators that the brakes in your Ram may need to be examined or serviced before the expected end of their service life. Squeaking sounds while braking, vibrations in the wheel when braking, your truck pulling to one side when braking, or a softer, spongy feeling when applying the brake are all indications to have your brakes checked right away to make sure your Ram is safe for the road.
