Brake Parts- What We Use and Why

At Rogers Mobile Lube & Tire it is important to us that our clients not only get the best performance out of the parts we use, but also understand why we choose the parts that we do when maintaining their vehicle. Over the many years that I have serviced vehicles, I have learned to adopt the popular saying “do it right the first time.”

This is applicable not only to vehicle maintenance and repairs, but nearly every aspect of your life. After about 10 years of automotive experience (professionally and personally), I have come to learn that, though vehicles can be very expensive to maintain and repair, it is important to use the highest quality parts that you can find. There have been many times in the past where I was ecstatic that I saved $200 on a part, only to have it fail prematurely. Not only did I end up spending more money than necessary, I also lost my precious time having to go back and correct what should have been done right the first time. This is especially important for things that concern safety. Today we are going to look at why we at Rogers Mobile Lube, prefer the FLEET line of brake parts from NAPA Auto Parts.

As I stated above, I highly recommend purchasing the best parts available when it comes to safety, and brakes are one of the more important systems in your vehicle. You need to factor in your situation and the vehicle’s purpose when selecting parts. We service mainly fleet vehicles that either have a high GVWR (Gross vehicle weight rating), tow heavy loads, and travel many miles a year, so it is important to have high performance brake parts. We have found that the FLEET line of NAPA brake parts has given us and our clients the best performance, stopping power, and longevity.

            We realize while the FLEET line of brakes may not be the right fit for your sports car or sedan, however they do provide the best fleet vehicle performance that we have seen. We urge our clients to take the time to understand what parts are being installed on their vehicles, and to not only weigh the options based on price, but also on quality, longevity, and safety.

            Do the job once, do it right, and save money in the long run.
