Front and Rear Brake Rotors
On the 2013 Mercedes-Benz M-Class the front rotors typically handle the majority of braking force, so they often show wear sooner than the rear set. The front axle carries greater load transfer during deceleration and steering, which increases heat and wear, especially on a high-performance ML63 AMG with a twin-turbo V8. Rear rotors still play a crucial role in stability and parking brake function, and uneven wear between axles can lead to pull, vibration, or reduced braking efficiency. At Park Place Motorcars Dallas we measure rotor thickness, check for heat cracks and runout, and recommend resurfacing only when it meets factory specifications; otherwise we replace with OEM-grade rotors engineered for the M-Class braking system. Choosing dealership service provides accurate torque specs, calibrated testing, and a documented service history that preserves vehicle value and warranty benefits. To protect performance and safety, schedule service or review our current service specials before you arrive—our team will provide a clear cost breakdown and options for service financing.
