Do you have to replace brake pads and rotors at the same time on a 2013 Lexus GS 350?
- Not always, but replacing pads and rotors together is recommended when rotors are scored, warped, or below minimum thickness to ensure even contact and optimal braking.
- Our technicians inspect both and recommend the most cost-effective solution; doing it right the first time reduces repeat labor and long-term costs.
- Ask about our service specials and financing to make combined repairs more affordable.
How do you make 2013 Lexus GS 350 brake pads last longer?
- Adopt gentle braking habits, avoid unnecessary heavy braking, and reduce speed before stops.
- Keep brakes inspected during routine maintenance so pads are replaced before they damage rotors — our technicians will recommend OEM pads for longevity.
- Use regular service appointments and take advantage of our maintenance offers to protect long-term value.
What are the signs of bad brake rotors?
- Vibration or pulsation in the brake pedal or steering wheel when braking.
- Noises such as squealing, grinding, or thumping; visible scoring or rust build-up; reduced stopping power.

How do you know when to replace brake rotors?

- Our certified techs measure rotor thickness and assess heat damage — we provide an honest recommendation to avoid future repeat repairs.
- Schedule an inspection anytime by clicking to schedule appointment.
How often should you replace your 2013 Lexus GS 350 rotors?

- Regular brake inspections at Stevinson Lexus of Frederick ensure replacements happen only when needed, saving money and preventing secondary damage.
- Ask our team about recommended inspection intervals and available warranty coverage.
What is the difference between resurfacing and replacing brake rotors?
- Resurfacing (machining) removes a thin layer to restore a smooth surface when rotors are within thickness specs and not warped beyond limits.
- Replacement is required when rotors are below minimum thickness, cracked, or too damaged for safe machining; replacement restores full structural integrity and braking performance.
- Our technicians will recommend the safest, most cost-effective option and explain warranty implications; any covered repairs should be completed at a certified dealership.

Front and Rear Brake Rotors
Front and rear rotors serve the same function, but front rotors typically handle more braking load and heat, so they tend to wear faster. On a 2013 Lexus GS 350, the front axle can carry most of the stopping force, especially under heavy braking, causing greater wear and occasional warping. Rear rotors still matter for stability and balanced braking — worn rears can contribute to uneven pad wear or ABS activation. At Stevinson Lexus of Frederick we explain these differences and recommend repairs that prevent cascading issues like premature pad wear, uneven tire wear, or ABS faults. We honor manufacturer warranties, use OEM components, and provide clear upfront pricing with options to resurface or replace based on safety criteria.
