Cooler weather means it’s time to encourage customers to get those brakes checked

 

DEARBORN, Mich., September 25, 2017 – We can’t pump the brakes on the return of cooler weather but we can encourage customers to prepare their vehicles for wintry road conditions. Motorcraft has drivers covered with a full lineup of brake products including new brake pads, coated rotors and calipers and hub and bearing assemblies that are durable, easy to install and competitively priced. New coated rotors and calipers offer an updated look that favors a more open wheel design and help protect against corrosion.

 

While the majority of brake jobs are focused on brake pads, Motorcraft offers everything customers need, with new lines of rotors, pads, calipers and hubs.
