GeoBrakes carries a complete range of disc brake calipers confirmed to fit the Pontiac Phoenix, including new OEM-specification and quality remanufactured units meeting or exceeding original equipment standards for your Phoenix.
The disc brake caliper on the Pontiac Phoenix is the hydraulic clamp at the centre of your Phoenix disc brake system. Every time you press the brake pedal on your Pontiac Phoenix, 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 Phoenix interferes with that process at the source, causing uneven braking, accelerated pad and rotor wear, and pulling to one side that worsens over time.
New OEM-Specification Calipers for the Pontiac Phoenix
New OEM-specification calipers for the Pontiac Phoenix are brand-new units manufactured to the exact piston dimensions, seal specifications, and material tolerances of the original Phoenix factory part. They offer the longest service life on your Pontiac Phoenix and are the strongest choice for higher-mileage Phoenix vehicles or those operated in high-corrosion environments.
Remanufactured Calipers for the Pontiac Phoenix
Remanufactured calipers for the Pontiac Phoenix are original caliper housings completely disassembled, cleaned, inspected, and rebuilt with new pistons, seals, boots, and hardware. Quality remanufactured units perform identically to new calipers for most Pontiac Phoenix replacement applications and offer excellent value.
GeoBrakes stocks both new and remanufactured calipers for the Pontiac Phoenix to give you the right option for your Phoenix and budget. As an authorized retailer of Cardone, EBC, Raybestos, and other trusted brands for the Pontiac Phoenix, every caliper purchase carries the full manufacturer warranty. Our vehicle selector confirms the correct caliper for the Pontiac Phoenix year, axle position, and correct left or right hand fitment before you place your order.
Should I replace brake calipers on my Pontiac Phoenix in pairs?
It is generally recommended to replace calipers as an axle pair on the Pontiac Phoenix, both left and right on the same axle, to maintain balanced braking. If one Phoenix 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 Pontiac Phoenix in US?
Pontiac Phoenix calipers typically last 100,000 to 150,000 kilometres, but American road salt and moisture accelerate corrosion of Phoenix caliper guide pins, slide pins, and piston seal boots, often causing premature failure on the Pontiac Phoenix well before that figure.
Can a sticking caliper on my Pontiac Phoenix damage my brake pads and rotors?
Yes. A Phoenix 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 Pontiac Phoenix. This rapidly wears both the pad and rotor surface on your Phoenix and generates enough heat buildup to damage adjacent components over time.
