Mopar Brake Calipers
Brake calipers are parts of a vehicle's disc brake system. They're essentially clamps, with one or more pistons, and which have brake pads attached to them. Most vehicles will at least have front calipers, if not calipers both up front and in the rear.
What they do is press down on brake rotors. Step on your brakes, and you'll see how they work. First, your master cylinder will send brake fluid through hoses and valves. This liquid pressurizes the pistons. The pistons charge the calipers, and they fasten to the rotors, using the pads in between to generate friction. This resistance slows and stops the vehicle. (This is all in distinction from drum brakes, which are made up of brake drums and brake shoes that do the job.)
The process is a big heat generator, though. If the rotors can't expel it properly, the heat can affect the calipers for the worse. For example, it can cause seal decay, allowing build-up of corrosive contaminants. Other issues often follow. Luckily, bad calipers present with signs you can look for. They include:
- Unusual brake pressure
- Brake fluid leaking into the engine compartment and/or onto the wheels
- Drifting sideways as you brake
- Continuous grinding or squealing
- Warning lights on the dashboard, for either your brakes, your ABS system, or both
Seeing any of them? A brake caliper replacement might be called for.
