- Brake pads or shoes are the parts that physically make contact with your brake rotor and apply pressure or friction to slow and stop your wheels from turning. It's extremely vital to keep Nissan Armada brake pads fresh by replacing them as they experience quite a bit of stress each time they are used. Check your Nissan Armada maintenance schedule for the suggested mileage intervals.
- Backing plate & return spring holds your Nissan Armada braking system together so it can function accurately.

- Parking Brake cable or adjuster is a steel cable used to activate the parking brakes. When the lever is used or pedal depressed, the cable pulls the calipers or drums to initiate the parking brake of your Nissan Armada.
- Brake Hoses transmit brake fluid from the brake line to your Nissan Armada brake calipers. It's made of rubber and is flexible so that it can move with the suspension. These hoses need to be examined constantly for cracks and other symptoms of deterioration. Check your Nissan Armada maintenance schedule for more data on when your hoses should be replaced.
Brake pads consist of two layers: a metal backing plate and a high-friction material that includes rubber, fiber, carbon & other materials. Over time, brake pads wear down and can even start squeaking.

This can likewise cause damage to your rotors and, in some cases, can even start distorting them. In addition to serving as a "platform" for the friction material, the backing plate likewise protects the brake caliper from disproportionate heat buildup.

Brake fluid from the master cylinder forces these pistons to maneuver the brake pads against the disc. The brake caliper will equally distribute pressure against the brake disc. Generally, the more pistons in a caliper, the more equally the pressure from the pads is spread onto the brake disc.
