How do you know when to replace brake rotors?

What is the difference between resurfacing and replacing brake rotors?

  • Resurfacing (turning) restores a rotor’s face by removing a small amount of material to correct warping or scoring; replacement installs a new rotor when thickness or damage prevents safe resurfacing.
  • Plaza Motor Company advises on which option preserves safety and long-term value; we use OEM parts and precise machining equipment to factory standards.
  • To discuss options and schedule service, contact our certified technicians—repairs under warranty must be completed at a certified dealership.

Front and Rear Brake Rotors

The 2026 Mercedes-Benz GLC Coupe uses distinct front and rear rotors that share the mission of stopping the vehicle but experience different loads. Front rotors handle the majority of braking force and heat, so they generally wear faster than rear rotors—especially in city driving, towing, or spirited use. Rear rotors still play a vital role in balance and stability; if rear hardware is worn it can lead to uneven pad wear, ABS sensing issues, or reduced confidence in wet conditions. At Plaza Motor Company in Missouri, our factory-trained technicians inspect both front and rear assemblies, measure rotor thickness and runout, and advise whether resurfacing or full replacement is the best value. We use OEM rotors and manufacturer procedures to ensure long-term durability and maintain your vehicle’s calibrated brake feel.
