Content
Issue: Excessive corrosion on the vehicle brake disc friction faces which could result in
brake noise and/or judder or Customer dissatisfaction due to poor cosmetic
appearance.
Cause: Environmental influences where the vehicle has been stored or has had little
use.
Action: Inspect discs, if corrosion is excessive i.e. there is a heavy layer of rust, replace
discs. If rust is not excessive, follow procedure below.
Drive at 30-35 mph and brake to rest at a light to moderate deceleration (not heavy
braking), accelerate normally back to 30-35mph. Brake again after approximately 1/2
mile and re-accelerate to 30-35 mph. Repeat this for a total of 20 miles, braking every
1/2 mile.
At the end of this process, inspect discs. The disc is serviceable if the surface is mainly
bright cast iron without any remaining large corroded areas.
