Cadillac Deville Disc Brake Caliper in US

The disc brake caliper on the Cadillac Deville is the hydraulic clamp at the centre of your Deville disc brake system. Every time you press the brake pedal on your Cadillac Deville, brake fluid pressure forces the caliper pistons outward, squeezing the brake pads against the rotor and generating the friction that stops your vehicle. A seized, leaking, or sticking caliper on the Deville interferes with that process at the source, causing uneven braking, accelerated pad and rotor wear, and pulling to one side that worsens over time.

Signs of a Failing Disc Brake Caliper on the Cadillac Deville

• Cadillac Deville pulls strongly to one side during braking, a seized caliper on one side applies more force
• Brake pedal on your Deville feels soft or spongy and improves after pumping, caliper piston seal leaking
• One brake pad on your Cadillac Deville axle wears significantly faster than its partner
• Brake drag on the Cadillac Deville, vehicle feels like it is fighting resistance at normal road speed
• Visible brake fluid leaking from the Deville caliper body or around the piston boot
• Grinding or scraping from one Cadillac Deville wheel that persists after confirming pads are not worn

New OEM-Spec vs. Remanufactured Calipers for the Cadillac Deville

Frequently Asked Questions - Cadillac Deville Disc Brake Caliper

Should I replace brake calipers on my Cadillac Deville in pairs?

It is generally recommended to replace calipers as an axle pair on the Cadillac Deville, both left and right on the same axle, to maintain balanced braking. If one Deville caliper has failed, the caliper on the opposite side has experienced the same service conditions and is likely at a similar stage of wear.

How long do disc brake calipers last on a Cadillac Deville in US?

Cadillac Deville calipers typically last 100,000 to 150,000 kilometres, but American road salt and moisture accelerate corrosion of Deville caliper guide pins, slide pins, and piston seal boots, often causing premature failure on the Cadillac Deville well before that figure.

Can a sticking caliper on my Cadillac Deville damage my brake pads and rotors?

Yes. A Deville caliper that does not fully retract keeps the brake pad in partial contact with the rotor between stops, generating constant friction and heat on your Cadillac Deville. This rapidly wears both the pad and rotor surface on your Deville and generates enough heat buildup to damage adjacent components over time.
