Brake Products Features

A lesser-known but critical component of the braking system is the Brake Dust Shield. This part shields suspension and drivetrain components from the extreme heat generated during braking, while protecting the brake rotors, calipers and pads from environmental elements that can compromise braking performance. The original dust shield has a tendency to rust, bend, and even crack, allowing dirt and debris to contaminate the critical braking components. CARDONE® Brake Dust Shields are made from stamped steel to match the O.E. design, and are powder-coated to resist rust and corrosion.

The Vacuum Brake Booster provides power assist to the brake system. As anyone who has experienced a booster failure knows, this part greatly reduces the effort required to stop the vehicle. Brake booster problems misdiagnosed, often set off a series of expensive events. Most common symptoms are a lack of braking pressure, excess braking noise or poor pedal return after release.

• Components and complete assembly are 100% hydraulically and electronically tested.
• On-car validation, when applicable, ensures fit, durability andperformance requirements.
• New product design improvements prevent typical causes oforiginal unit failure.

Advancements in automotive technology provide greater functionality and expanded features but also can create new failure modes in certain systems. Electronic parking brakes are an example of a new application that can cause problems. These newer parking brakes feature push button activation versus the traditional pedal and lever arm style found on older vehicles. While ease of use in engaging the parking brake is increased, so is the likelihood of failure by adding the electronic motor to the system. Now when an electronic brake fails, there are two possible culprits - the caliper and the electronic parking brake motor. The O.E. dealer wants to sell you the whole unit, but why pay for both if you only need the motor? CARDONE has you covered with CARDONE Electronic Parking Brake Motors. Supplied with new hardware to properly mount to the caliper, these premium motors are an exclusive O.E. alternative at a fraction of the cost.
