Toyota Brake Rotors

You need trustworthy brakes if you want your vehicle to reliably stop. Your brake rotors have an important part to play when it comes to ensuring that happens on command.

What Brake Rotors Do

The brake rotors are those round discs that connect to your wheels. They convert the kinetic energy from rotating motion into thermal energy. That happens when the brake calipers clamp the brake pads onto the rotors. The resulting friction, or resistance, generates heat, or thermal energy while slowing the rotation of your tires.

How to Spot Bad Brake Rotors

Unfortunately, that heat can eventually cause your brake rotors to go bad. Signs of this include:

• A bouncing or vibrating brake pedal
• Grinding noises when you brake
• Needing more time and distance to stop

Don't let failing brake rotors go without repair, particularly if the brake pedal is vibrating when you apply pressure. That indicates that your rotors may be warping, which means the brake pads can't maintain consistent pressure. If your rotors need replacing, insist on choosing ones made by your manufacturer. They're guaranteed to fit your model's specifications and work right out of the box. Find yours in our online auto parts department. Buy now and we'll ship your order directly to your front door!
