What is the difference between resurfacing and replacing brake rotors?

  • Replacement installs new OEM rotors when surfacing would leave the rotor below minimum thickness or when damage is too severe—new rotors restore full performance and longevity.
  • At Stevinson Lexus of Frederick our technicians evaluate rotors and recommend the most cost-effective and safest solution; dealer service often provides better long-term value because OEM parts and proper procedures reduce repeat visits.
  • To get a clear recommendation, schedule service and review current service specials and financing options.

Front and Rear Brake Rotors

Front and rear rotors on a 2014 Lexus GS 450h serve different roles: the front rotors handle most of the braking load and typically wear faster due to weight transfer during stops, while rear rotors stabilize braking and contribute to balance and ABS function. Because the front axle does a larger share of stopping work, front rotors commonly require replacement sooner than rear rotors. At Stevinson Lexus of Frederick our certified Lexus technicians inspect both front and rear rotors, measure thickness, and check for warping or heat damage to recommend resurfacing or replacement based on OEM standards. Choosing the dealership means clear diagnostics, OEM parts, and factory procedures that protect brake performance and vehicle resale value. We also offer service financing to make necessary repairs manageable and provide transparent pricing so you understand immediate costs and long-term savings. Before you leave, ask about our service specials and loyalty programs; then schedule service online for fast, reliable work backed by manufacturer knowledge and warranties.
