How They Work and When to Replace Them

Brake calipers house the brake pistons and are responsible for pushing the brake pads against the rotors. Over time, calipers can wear out or develop issues such as seized pistons or leaks. It is generally recommended to replace brake calipers if they are damaged, malfunctioning, or causing braking issues. The specific interval for replacement may vary depending on driving conditions, but it is typically done as part of a brake pad and rotor replacement job.
