When Is It Time to Change Your Brakes
Your brakes are by far one of the more important components of your vehicle. To remain safe on the road, and for the safety of other motorists and pedestrians, it is imperative that your brakes are in proper working order.
Your brakes will start to deteriorate gradually each time you use them. Therefore, the more you drive, the quicker they’ll need to be replaced. The same is true for the amount of pressure and length of time the brakes are used. So, if you live in the mountains, they’ll need to be replaced more often than if you lived in the city.

Vehicle Maintenance Checklist
The vehicle maintenance checklist is the lifeline of your vehicle, along with the driver's ability to tell when something isn't right with their vehicle other than the blatantly apparent flat tire or dead battery. Usually, but not always, your vehicle will give you some big hints that something is wrong.
Car dealerships generally follow the car manufacture's 30/60/90 schedule, which means that specific things need to be checked, replaced, or changed at the 30,000, 60,000, and 90,000-mile mark. Plus, you have your regular vehicle maintenance checklist items before and in between the 30/60/90 mile schedule.
