Front and Rear Brake Rotors
The 2018 Hyundai Sonata Plug-in Hybrid uses a balanced braking system where front rotors typically handle the majority of stopping force, which is why front rotors often wear faster than rear rotors. Front rotors endure greater heat and pressure during braking because weight shifts forward, making them more susceptible to thinning, warping, and scoring. Rear rotors still play a vital role in stability and ABS function; neglecting them can lead to uneven braking, pulling, or premature pad wear. At Herb Chambers Hyundai of Auburn our factory-trained technicians inspect both front and rear rotors, measure thickness to Hyundai specifications, and recommend resurfacing or replacement based on precise limits. We use OEM rotors and pads to maintain original performance and safety standards. Take advantage of our transparent pricing, available service specials, and service financing so you can get safe, dependable braking now and pay over time.
