Inspection-driven schedule: we recommend regular inspections—at least annually or during oil changes—to determine true wear rather than relying solely on mileage.
Driving factors: towing, frequent highway driving, or city stop-and-go conditions can accelerate pad and rotor wear on a 2013 Mercedes-Benz GL-Class.
OEM guidance and accuracy: our technicians follow manufacturer service guidelines and use precise measurement tools to recommend replacement only when necessary.
Warranty and documented service: regular dealership inspections and service help protect warranty coverage and sustain vehicle resale value.

What is included in a 2013 Mercedes-Benz GL-Class brake service?

Comprehensive inspection: visual and measurement checks of pads, rotors, calipers, brake lines, hoses, sensors and fluid condition.
Pad and rotor service options: we will recommend pad resurfacing, rotor replacement, or both based on measured wear and manufacturer specs.
Brake fluid service: testing and, if needed, flushing to maintain hydraulic performance and prevent corrosion in the system.
OEM parts and tools: use of factory parts, calibrations and diagnostic tools to ensure lasting repairs and preserve OEM performance.
Warranty confirmation: we identify any covered items and perform warranty repairs only at a certified dealership to keep coverage intact.

2013 Mercedes-Benz GL-Class Brake Warranty

Brake wear items like pads and rotors are generally considered consumable parts and may not be covered under a standard OEM limited warranty, but coverage can vary by vehicle, remaining warranty term, or active service campaigns. For the 2013 Mercedes-Benz GL-Class, there may be instances where components are covered by a parts warranty, extended warranty, or recall/service action. Because warranty terms differ and can change over time, it is important to have a certified dealership inspect the vehicle so we can verify eligibility and document the issue properly. Park Place Motorcars Dallas will perform warranty repairs using OEM parts and factory procedures, ensuring the repair is logged with the manufacturer and your coverage remains intact. Attempting warranty repairs at an independent shop can risk voiding coverage; any repairs covered under warranty must be performed at a certified dealership to protect the warranty and your long-term ownership value. Our advisors will explain any applicable coverage and outline next steps if warranty work applies to your vehicle.

2013 Mercedes-Benz GL-Class Brake Pads and Rotors

Replacing both brake pads and rotors together is often the best practice for restoring full braking performance on a 2013 Mercedes-Benz GL-Class. New pads on worn rotors can lead to uneven contact, reduced stopping power and accelerated wear of the new pads. When we service pads and rotors simultaneously, we ensure proper bedding-in, correct thickness, and balanced braking across all wheels. During inspection we measure rotor thickness, runout and surface condition and will only recommend replacement if measurements fall outside manufacturer specifications. In many cases resurfacing rotors is a cost-effective option, but that decision is made with precise OEM tolerances in mind. Using genuine Mercedes-Benz parts or approved OE-equivalent components ensures material compatibility and heat tolerance matched to the vehicle’s brake system. This combined approach reduces the chance of follow-up repairs and contributes to longer component life—delivering immediate value and lower maintenance costs over time. Our factory-trained technicians will explain options and show you measured data so you can make an informed decision.
