When your brakes start squealing or you find yourself pushing harder on the pedal to stop, it's time to take your car to a trusted auto repair shop. You're told that your brakes or rotors need replacing, and after the work is done, you feel relieved and safe again. But then, just a few months later, you experience brake failure once more. Could it be that your car isn't being stored properly, leading to rust that’s affecting your braking system?
While improper storage could be a factor, there's a more common and dangerous reason: the use of aftermarket brake components. These parts may seem like a cost-effective solution, but they often come with hidden risks that can compromise your safety.
At DaSilva’s Auto Body, we prioritize your safety above all else. That’s why we only use **original equipment manufacturer (OEM)** parts for every repair and replacement job—including brakes. Here’s what you need to know about the difference between OEM and aftermarket brakes.
Aftermarket brakes are typically made from “black steel,†which gets its name from the layer of black oxide left on the surface during production. Unlike OEM brakes, which are made from galvanized steel that’s treated with acid and oil to prevent rust and ensure durability, black steel lacks this protective layer. This makes it more prone to corrosion and failure over time.
The issues with aftermarket brakes go beyond just rust. They often don’t adhere well to the friction lining, which can cause them to detach while driving—leading to longer stopping distances or even complete brake failure. Additionally, these parts aren’t held to the same rigorous testing standards as OEM components, meaning their performance and reliability can be unpredictable.
According to studies by the Global Brake Safety Council, aftermarket brakes have a higher risk of failure, which increases the likelihood of accidents. Many of these parts also rust sooner, causing the brake pads to bind and the backing plates to separate from the friction lining. Even if not all aftermarket brakes are made from black steel, the fact remains that using them can put your life at risk.
Choosing OEM parts ensures quality, reliability, and long-term safety. At DaSilva’s Auto Body, we believe that your safety should never be compromised for the sake of saving a few dollars.
