Front and Rear Brake Rotors

Front and rear rotors play different roles — the front rotors generally handle more stopping force and heat, and therefore often wear faster than rear rotors. On the 2018 Ram Promaster City, the front brakes typically absorb the majority of braking energy, which is why front rotors may require replacement sooner in high-mileage or heavy-load applications. Rear rotors still matter: uneven rear wear can cause pull and instability during braking. At Larry H. Miller Chrysler Jeep Dodge Ram Boise we explain these differences and recommend service that fits your driving profile. We provide OEM parts, technician certification, and detailed inspections that reveal when resurfacing is viable versus when replacement is safer and more cost-effective. Take advantage of our service specials or inquire about loyalty benefits and service financing to make repairs manageable. Don’t wait for symptoms to escalate — schedule appointment today to maintain brake balance and vehicle safety.
