If your vehicle is pulling hard to one side when you apply the brakes, making you wrestle the steering wheel to keep it under control, it is time for a good inspection of your Acura MDX brakes. If the many components of the Acura MDX brakes are working together in the smooth and synchronized fashion for which they are engineered, braking should be a smooth and controlled process. Pulling is a common sign of trouble in the system, often an indication of a malfunctioning brake caliper.

Each component of the Acura MDX brakes is important to the process, playing its own role in maintaining safe and smooth braking performance in your vehicle. When you apply the brakes, the brake master cylinder sends a surge of hydraulic fluid through the system to operate the brake components at each vehicle wheel.

This pressure moves a piston inside the brake caliper, allowing the caliper to move a pair of brake pads into contact with each side of the brake disc. The brake pads are lined with a friction compound to grip the brake disc tightly, producing friction to stop the motion of the wheel. If the Acura MDX brakes parts at each wheel are working properly, all four should function in precise cooperation, applying the brake pads to the disc at the same time, causing the wheels to come to a stop together. If the brake pads of one wheel are gripping more quickly or slowly than the others, the vehicle will pull.
