Historically, most brake pads, brake shoes and linings were manufactured with asbestos. Although asbestos is not used in the production of these auto parts today, millions of brake components in automobiles and sitting on shelves carry the deadly substance.

When asbestos-containing brake pads, shoes and lining wear down, asbestos dust is released into the air and trapped in the brake housing. When brakes are repaired, mechanics are at risk of exposure to asbestos.
Mechanics who work on brakes are at high risk of exposure to asbestos. Home mechanics are also at risk. It is difficult to tell if a brake pad contains asbestos by looking at it. For this reason, you should be careful when working on any brake part.
When asbestos fibers from brake pad linings are released into the air, they can be inhaled by people in the vicinity. When the microscopic asbestos fibers are inhaled, they can become lodged in the lining of the lungs, causing mesothelioma and other asbestos-related diseases over time.
If you or a loved one has suffered mesothelioma due to brake pads or any other source, our attorneys are here to offer experienced advice and advocacy.
