Rear Brake Caliper Piston & Body Assembly 🚗

Why This Part Is Important

This assembly is a crucial safety component of your car’s disc brake system. It pushes brake pads against the rotor, allowing your vehicle to slow down and stop safely. Without this, effective braking isn’t possible.

How It Works

The piston inside the caliper uses hydraulic pressure from the brake fluid. When you press the brake pedal, it moves the piston, forcing the pads against the brake disc. This friction is what slows the car down.

Signs of Failure 🚨

• Spongy brake pedal
• Uneven braking
• Visible brake fluid leaks
• Car pulling to one side during braking

Risks If Broken

If this part fails, you may lose braking power. This can increase stopping distance and lead to dangerous driving situations. Immediate replacement is highly recommended to ensure full brake performance and safety.
