rusted brakes?! WTH
 
so... i was looking under my blazer the other day, and stumble upon this:

This is my right rear brake.
I have no idea what part it is, it appears to be a cover or shield. but its completely rusted through. Should i be worried? does it need to be replaced?
I just got my oil changed at PepBoys and they did a 5 point check. didnt say anything about it...

WHAT IS IT?! lol

It's just a dust shield. Not really something to worry too much about. To replace it, you have to pull the axles.

No problem. It's actually a question that has come up before, but not with pictures like yours. Good for others if they search.
