What is the difference between resurfacing and replacing brake rotors?

• Resurfacing (or machining) removes a thin layer to restore a smooth surface; replacement installs new rotors when thickness or damage prevents resurfacing.
• Resurfacing can be cost-effective when rotors are within spec; replacement is safer and required if rotors are below minimum thickness, cracked, or severely scored.
• Herb Chambers Hyundai of Auburn evaluates each rotor and recommends the option that delivers the best long-term value and safety, backed by warranty.

2017 Hyundai Sonata Brake Rotors

The brake rotors on your 2017 Hyundai Sonata convert kinetic energy to heat through friction when the brake pads clamp down. Rotors must be flat, within thickness specifications, and free of deep grooves to deliver smooth, predictable stops. At Herb Chambers Hyundai of Auburn in Auburn, MA, our certified Hyundai technicians use factory procedures and OEM components to inspect, resurface, or replace rotors so your Sonata returns to optimal braking performance. Choosing our dealership means you get genuine parts, calibrated machining equipment, and a multi-point inspection that protects ABS sensors, calipers, and pad life.

Front and Rear Brake Rotors

Front rotors typically experience higher wear on the 2017 Hyundai Sonata because braking weight shifts forward, placing more demand on the front discs. Rear rotors often last longer but can still warp or develop uneven wear, especially with heavy towing, aggressive driving, or infrequent maintenance. At Herb Chambers Hyundai of Auburn we diagnose both front and rear systems to determine whether resurfacing or replacement best restores braking balance. Ignoring worn rotors can cause uneven pad wear, vibration, increased stopping distance, and higher long-term costs from related component damage. Our service advisors will explain repair options, OEM part benefits, and available discounts, and we regularly publish service specials that lower your out-of-pocket expense.
