Front and Rear Brake Rotors

Front and rear rotors on a 2013 Jeep Patriot serve different roles and therefore may wear at unequal rates. Front rotors typically handle a higher proportion of braking force and heat, which means they often show wear sooner than rears. Rear rotors help stabilize the vehicle and can be subject to corrosion from road salt or light, repeated braking. Our technicians at Larry H. Miller Chrysler Jeep Dodge Ram Boise evaluate both sets and recommend resurfacing only when thickness and integrity meet manufacturer limits; otherwise we recommend replacement with OEM rotors to ensure consistent braking feel and longevity. We explain the pros and cons of front-only or full-axle rotor replacement and the long-term savings of correcting underlying issues like caliper drag or incorrect pad compounds.

A clear, timely service prevents larger repairs and keeps your Patriot safe on Boise roads.
