- Important part of braking system
- Protects brake components from dust and debris
- Replace if broken, corroded, or missing
The Brake Dust Shield is an essential part of your INFINITI's braking system, yet it's one that many people overlook. When you brake, the friction between the rotors and pads produces brake dust. As the name implies, the Brake Dust Shield helps shield your brake and suspension parts from this dust. It also helps protect them from moisture, dirt, sand, and more.
When debris builds up, it can lead to premature wear of your braking system and potentially brake failure. The Brake Dust Shield is especially important for drivers who live in locations with salted roads because salt can lead to faster corrosion of essential braking and suspension parts.
When should you replace your INFINITI Brake Dust Shield? If your Brake Dust Shield is cracked, rusted, bent, loose, or completely missing, you need a replacement. Driving with a damaged or missing Brake Dust Shield might not have an immediate effect, but it could shorten your braking system's lifespan.
The Brake Dust Shield is located underneath a few layers of braking hardware, which can make it hard to replace or install at home. If you aren't familiar with or comfortable working on cars, we recommend purchasing the the new part online and taking your car to the nearest INFINITI service center to have certified technicians replace the Brake Dust Shield.
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 car.
The Brake Dust Shield, part 411511LA0A, is compatible with INFINITI Armada 2018-2021. For more fitment info, and to double-check you are getting the right part, view the What This Fits tab.
