How to Replace the Brake Pads on a Jeep Compass

Model: Jeep Compass 552, MK 2 - Years 2016-2025
Part: Brake pads

In this video, we will see how to change the brake pads on a 2017 Jeep Compass. The video will show us how to replace them on one wheel, as the procedure is the same for the other side. First, remove the wheel so you can work directly on the part of interest. From here, unscrew the piston to remove the old pads that need replacing. Take the new pads and reposition them where the old ones were, ensuring to respect the position of the shim on each pad. At this point, reattach the piston secured with the bolt and then also refit the wheel.

This should be pulled out and thoroughly cleaned with a cloth: once cleaned, reinsert it back into its tube and pull it out immediately after. This way, you can check that the oil mark is between the minimum and maximum levels; finally, you can place the dipstick back in its tube.
