A proper brake service for the 2023 Ford Transit Connect Passenger Wagon follows a consistent, OEM-aligned checklist. We start with a visual inspection of calipers, hoses, and lines, followed by precise pad thickness measurements. Rotors are checked for thickness and runout against Ford specifications to determine resurfacing or replacement needs. Hardware is cleaned or replaced as needed, and caliper slides are cleaned and lubricated to ensure even pad wear and quiet operation. We check brake fluid level and condition, inspect for leaks, and confirm ABS warning status. The service concludes with a road test to validate pedal feel, stopping performance, and noise/vibration control. Wear items arent typically warranty-covered, but defects may be.
