How do you know when to replace brake rotors?

What is the difference between resurfacing and replacing brake rotors?

• Resurfacing removes a thin layer of metal to restore a smooth braking surface when the rotor meets thickness specs; replacement installs a new rotor when resurfacing is not safe or effective.
• Resurfacing can be economical and extend rotor life, but replacement ensures OEM tolerances and longevity—our technicians will advise based on safety and long-term cost-benefit.
• All warranty work must be performed at a certified dealership. We highlight transparent pricing, OEM parts, and financing options—see our service specials or schedule appointment today.
