OEM Mopar Brake Rotors

When you step on your vehicle's brake pedal, its brakes activate. Its brake calipers press its brake pads to brake rotors. This is how brakes generate friction, the resistance that slows wheels and stops tires spinning. The process creates a lot of heat, though, and brakes that can't diffuse it end up damaged double quick. Your original Mopar brake rotors do the best job scattering it. Which fit your vehicle, however, depends on which one of the four types of rotors it has from the factory. They include blank & smooth, drilled, slotted, and the ultimate heatsink, drilled & slotted. A lot of cars use blank & smooth or drilled brake rotors. Heavier-duty SUVs and trucks usually use slotted brake rotors. Performance vehicles use drilled & slotted brake rotors most often because they run hot. Eventually, however, all kinds wear out, whether from use or with age.

How Often Do Brake Rotors Need to Be Replaced?

They need to be changed at 70,000 miles, and at every 70,000-mile interval afterward. If you're trying to determine whether they need it, though, it's better to look for signs of problems with them. When rotors start to go bad or fail, you'll begin feeling brake wobble, hearing unusual brake noises, and noticing surface damage. In these cases, replace your rotors in pairs to ensure you can continue to brake evenly. You can order what you need at our auto parts counter.
