Honda HR-V Rear Brake Pads & Rotor Replacement

Rear brake parts generally wear out well after the front brakes due to the level of stress needed to slow a vehicle. Some rear brakes can last up to 50,0000 - 80,000 miles, but you should confer your Honda HR-V service manual for recommended maintenance intervals for all components. Keep in mind you should invariably have your service department perform a multipoint inspection which includes inspecting your brake system.

What are the signs and symptoms of bad Honda HR-V brake rotors or pads?

Just like there are typical brake issues, there are very apparent signs that can signify the cause of a brake problem. Warning signs include a shaky steering wheel, trouble stopping or a loud metal scraping sound are all indicators that you need to check your Honda HR-V brakes. Nevertheless, there are multiple other, and less clear, indicators that your Honda HR-V brakes may be showing which you don’t want to ignore.

When do I need to get my brakes inspected? Schedule your appointment with Larry H. Miller Honda Murray if you experience any of the following:

  • Your car is wobbling or rocking when driving at high speeds

Honda HR-V Brake Fluid

Where does brake fluid come into the equation? The brake fluid or hydraulic fluid is responsible for moving the components of your Honda HR-V brake system. Brake fluid should be changed regularly. Ask your Honda HR-V maintenance manual for data on exact mileage intervals. Fresh brake fluid is something few people think about, even though it can seriously affect braking performance.For any brake related questions or concerns, reach out to our Honda experts at Larry H. Miller Honda Murray. You can even schedule your appointment online.

Brake Pads | Brake Rotors | Brake Calipers

The Honda HR-V brake system is comprised of the following key components:

  • Anti-lock Braking System pump and a computer allows your car to keep traction on the road continuously.
  • Brake pads or shoes are the components that physically make contact with your brake rotor and apply pressure or friction to slow and stop your wheels from turning. It's exceptionally vital to keep Honda HR-V brake pads fresh by replacing them as they experience quite a bit of stress each time they are used. Check your Honda HR-V maintenance schedule for the suggested mileage intervals.
  • Backing plate & return spring holds your Honda HR-V braking system together so it can function perfectly.
  • Parking Brake cable or adjuster is a steel cable used to trigger the parking brakes. When the lever is used or pedal depressed, the cable pulls the calipers or drums to initiate the parking brake of your Honda HR-V.
  • Rotors again called discs or drums are what your pads grip in order to stop the wheels from spinning. There are various types of brake rotors (Blank or "smooth" rotors, Cross-drilled rotors, slotted, drilled and slotted). Let find the best type of brake rotors for your Honda HR-V
  • Brake Hoses transmit brake fluid from the brake line to your Honda HR-V brake calipers. It's made of rubber and is flexible so that it can move with the suspension. These hoses need to be examined repeatedly for cracks and other symptoms of deterioration. Check your Honda HR-V maintenance schedule for more information on when your hoses should be replaced.
  • Heat Shield or dust shield helps limit grime buildup thereby extending the life of your brake system.
  • Master cylinder or hydraulic cylinder converts the pressure you put on your Honda HR-V brake pedals to power the rest of your brake system by feeding brake fluid into the brake circuit.
  • Brake Calipers squeeze the brake pads up against your Honda HR-V rotors to slow or stop your car.

Brake pads consist of two layers: a metal backing plate and a high-friction material that includes rubber, fiber, carbon & other materials. Over time, brake pads wear down and can even start squeaking. This noise is the metal backing plate & the rotor touching, which still acts as a safety measure to let you know your brakes need repair. This can still cause damage to your rotors and, in some cases, can even start distorting them. In addition to serving as a "platform" for the friction material, the backing plate still protects the brake caliper from disproportionate heat buildup.

Brake calipers cover the rotors and contain pistons. The amount of pistons depends on the type of brake system. Brake fluid from the master cylinder forces these pistons to maneuver the brake pads against the disc. The brake caliper will uniformly distribute pressure against the brake disc. Generally, the more pistons in a caliper, the more uniformly the pressure from the pads is spread onto the brake disc.

Should I replace all 4 rotors?

Typically you will need to replace at least 2 rotors at a time. Usually, your Honda HR-V front rotors will wear and tear faster than the rear rotors, but this depends on a wide range of different factors. Ask Larry H. Miller Honda Murray for more details by dialing 3854254756 and ask for a multipoint inspection of your complete braking system. At our Honda diagnostics are free during any visit.

How long do Honda HR-V brake rotors last?
