  • How much does brake pad replacement cost?

    Brake pad replacement typically costs between $150 and $300 per axle at Hub Starters, depending on your vehicle type and the quality of brake pads you choose. Most passenger cars and light trucks fall within this range, while luxury vehicles or performance cars may cost more.

  • How do I know when my brake pads need replacing?

    Your brake pads need replacement when you notice squealing or grinding noises, your brake pedal feels soft or spongy, your vehicle pulls to one side when braking, or your brake warning light comes on. Most brake pads also have a built-in wear indicator that creates a high-pitched squeal when they're down to about 25% life remaining.

  • How long does it take to replace brake pads?

    Brake pad replacement typically takes 30 minutes to 1 hour per axle at Hub Starters. A standard front or rear brake pad replacement typically takes about an hour, while replacing pads on both the front and rear can take 1.5 to 2 hours.


    The timeline may be extended if your rotors need resurfacing or replacement, or if we discover other brake system issues during inspection.
