Brake Splash Guard. Plate Baffle.

- Important part of braking system
- Protects brake components from dust and debris
- Replace if broken, corroded, or missing
Your Nissan Brake Dust Shield is an important part of your braking system, yet many drivers don't think about it. When you engage your brakes, the pads and rotors rub together, which creates brake dust. Based on the name, it's unsurprising that the Brake Dust Shield helps protect your brake and suspension components against this dust. It also helps shield them from dirt, sand, moisture, and more.
When debris builds up, it can cause quicker wear of your braking system and possibly brake failure. The Brake Dust Shield is especially important for those who live in areas with salted roads because salt can corrode essential braking and suspension parts.
How do you know it's time to replace your Nissan Brake Dust Shield? If your Brake Dust Shield is bent, cracked, loose, rusted, or missing, you need a replacement. Driving with a missing or damaged Brake Dust Shield might not immediately harm your vehicle, but it could shorten your braking system's lifespan.
The Brake Dust Shield is found beneath a few layers of braking hardware, which might make it hard to replace or install on your own. Unless you are familiar and comfortable working with cars, we advise ordering the part online and bringing your vehicle to your local Nissan service center to have trained professionals handle the Brake Dust Shield replacement.
When it comes to your braking system and the Brake Dust Shield, you don't want to take any chances. Shop OEM parts to help make sure you get the right fit for your vehicle.
