Front and Rear Brake Rotors

Front and rear rotors serve different roles on the 2017 Hyundai Santa Fe. The front rotors handle a larger share of braking force—especially under heavy braking—so they commonly wear faster than the rear. Rear rotors assist with balance and parking brake functionality; depending on your Santa Fe’s configuration, rears may be smaller or subject to different wear patterns. Because of these differences, a certified inspection from Larry H. Miller Hyundai Peoria pinpoints whether resurfacing or full replacement is required on each axle. We use OEM rotors to preserve ABS calibration and braking feel. Take advantage of current service specials for combined pad-and-rotor packages and our transparent quotes that explain immediate costs and long-term benefits. Our service advisors can discuss warranty coverage, technician certifications, and loyalty program perks. Ready to restore confident braking?
