- Important part of braking system
- Protects brake components from dust and debris
- Replace if broken, corroded, or missing
Your Nissan Brake Dust Shield is an essential part of your car's braking system, however, it's one that many people overlook. When you use your brakes, the friction between the rotors and pads makes brake dust. As the name implies, the Brake Dust Shield helps protect your brake and suspension components from this dust. It also helps protect them from moisture, dirt, sand, and more.
When debris builds up, it can lead to premature wear of your braking system and potentially brake failure. The Brake Dust Shield is extra important if you live somewhere with salted roads because salt can cause essential braking and suspension parts to corrode faster.
When is it time to replace your Nissan Brake Dust Shield? If your Brake Dust Shield is rusted, bent, cracked, loose, or missing altogether, you need a replacement. Driving with a Brake Dust Shield that is damaged or missing might not immediately harm your vehicle, but you risk shortening the life of your braking system.
The Brake Dust Shield is located underneath a few layers of braking hardware, which may make it difficult to replace or install at home. Unless you are familiar and comfortable working with cars, we suggest purchasing the the new part online and taking your car to your local Nissan service center to have trained professionals handle the Brake Dust Shield replacement.
When it comes to your braking system and the Brake Dust Shield, you don't want to take any chances. Shop genuine OEM parts to help find you get the right fit for your Nissan.
