Brakes for city and rideshare drivers: when and how much
In stop-and-go city traffic you use your brakes constantly. Here is when to check your brakes, what Toyota schedules, and what it costs.
When to check them
Toyota's 2022 RAV4 Hybrid guide schedules a visual inspection of brake pads and discs every 5,000 miles, and a full inspection of brake linings, lines and hoses at 30,000 and 60,000 miles.
Do not wait for the schedule if you hear grinding or squealing, feel vibration in the pedal, or the car pulls to one side when you brake.
Brakes and your inspection
The NY State safety inspection checks the service brakes and the parking brake. Worn brakes can cause your car to fail, so have them checked before your inspection date.
