What is the Emergency/Parking Brake Shoe all about?

The job of the parking brake shoes is to hold the car in place (prevent the car from rolling) when you use the parking or emergency brake. Parking brake shoes are installed on cars that have rear rotors (also known as rear disc brakes). Most new cars (made after 1999) have rotors at the rear wheels. In the older cars that have drums at the rear wheels, the brake shoes inside the rear drums act as the parking brake shoes.

Keep in mind:

  • Parking brake shoes only exist on vehicles with rear rotors.
  • The thickness of the brake shoe will let the mechanic know if it needs replacing.
  • Sometimes a parking brake shoe will have debris or contamination; if this is cleaned off, the shoe may not need replacing.

How it's done:

  • Inspect parking brake shoes by removing the rear rotors.
  • If the thickness is less than 30% of the original, install new shoes.
  • Clean and adjust if necessary.
  • Confirm operation of the hand brake.

Our recommendation:

Parking brake shoes are the most overlooked part of the brake system. A mechanic should inspect the parking brake shoes while performing a brake service (changing the rear brake pads or rotors). If the shoes are in good condition, the mechanic should clean and adjust the shoes. If you notice a change in the way parking brake lever feels (easier or harder to pull), or if the car rolls after putting the parking brakes, you should immediately get it inspected and replaced.

What common symptoms indicate you may need to replace the Emergency / Parking Brake Shoe?

  • Parking brake does not hold the car.
  • Parking brake does not work.
  • Parking brake does not release.

How important is this service?

When you engage the parking brake, the parking brake shoes hold the car in place by clamping against the rear brake rotors. These shoes assure that the wheels cannot turn, and your car cannot roll. As the parking brake shoes wear out, they become thinner, and cannot apply as much pressure to the rotors, making them much less effective and putting your car at risk of moving out of its parked position.

Porsche Cayenne V8-4.5L Turbo - Brake Pads Replacement (Front, Rear) - Alpharetta, Georgia
Completely candid here. We did have an issue with scheduling at first - Madhi did not have the part he needed for our car with him and as such we needed to reschedule. A bit frustrating as I had planned to work from home. HOWEVER, he was at our location the next day, prepared and ready. We were quoted more than $1,200 from dealership, $990 from another location and $690 from this site. We saved minimally $300 for brakes. They seem to be working great. Madhi was diligent, kind, polite and took great care of our vehicle. I could not be more satisified with his work.

Porsche Cayenne V8-4.8L - Brake Pads Replacement (Front, Rear) - Houston, Texas
Knowledgeable Technician, Courteous and easy to get along with. Very enthusiastic about his work. Customer satisfaction is his mantra. He returned with an auto part which was not given to him initially. Order clerks and customer reps need to do a better job as regards customer experience. diligent technicians like Joseph cannot carry the entire weight of your enterprise on their shoulders. Irrespective of the strong brand proposition and value compelling argument, any business could be replicated. Please refine the customer experience at the customer representative level of interaction, if Brembo pads are stated as being used, please ensure the technicians get the right part. This is an ethical and integrity requirement to ensure the long-term profitability and sustainability of your business
