Your car's brake calipers have sliding pins that must move freely to apply even pressure to both brake pads. These pins require special high-temperature synthetic grease that can withstand over 400°F without melting or breaking down. Using regular grease or petroleum jelly can cause the pins to stick, leading to uneven brake pad wear and reduced braking performance. Many mechanics recommend inspecting and re-lubricating these pins during every brake pad replacement to ensure smooth, safe braking.
