Front and Rear Brake Rotors

The front and rear rotors on a 2026 ram 1500 play different roles: front rotors handle the bulk of stopping power and typically wear faster due to weight transfer during braking, while rear rotors stabilize braking and see less aggressive wear in normal driving. Understanding this difference helps you prioritize repairs: if the front rotors are scored or warped, you may notice vibration through the steering wheel or a pulsing brake pedal. Rear rotor issues often produce a softer pedal feel or uneven braking at low speeds. At Larry H. Miller Chrysler Jeep Dodge Ram Boise our technicians inspect both axles, measure rotor thickness to OEM standards, and provide a clear recommendation backed by OEM parts and factory procedures. We highlight any immediate safety needs and the long-term savings of choosing proper parts and installation instead of quick fixes. We also run rotating service offers and loyalty promotions—see our service specials—and provide service financing so you can get needed work done now and pay over time. Protecting braking balance improves safety, reduces wear on associated components, and preserves vehicle resale value. To keep your 2026 ram 1500 braking reliably, schedule service online or call our Boise service center for a transparent estimate and fast turnaround.
