Do I need to change a cracked brake disc?

Filed under: brakes

The question

Hello,

I checked my brake disc (the front one) and there is a crack after a small part from the top of the disc got cracked out from an accident and everything else is okay except this part so is it safe to keep it or should I change it?

Thanks a lot for the help

Hi Aziz,

Yes, you definitely should get that disc changed as soon as possible. If it fails under heavy braking, the car is likely to lurch in the opposite direction in an uncontrollable manner.
