Where suppliers use cheaper raw materials like steel fibre to drive costs down, this can lead to increased warranty claims for excessive noise and squealing.
Furthermore, poor quality friction material also accelerates disc wear.
With parts made to OE specifications, further reinforced by stringent quality control measures, Fahren customers say its customers do not face similar quality issues.
However, Farhen has told garages to be wary of warranty when the issues lie elsewhere:
- Pad failure due to heavy grooving caused by being fitted to heavily worn discs.
- Not lubricating or using an incorrect specification of lubricant, where necessary.
- Not cleaning the discs and calipers when fitting new pads.
- Not following fitting instructions properly.
The supplier adds that garages adhering to these simple guidelines can save time and money for everyone within the service chain.
