  • Replacement is required when machining would drop rotor thickness below spec or when heat cracks or severe scoring are present.
  • Our certified technicians evaluate safety, cost, and longevity and will recommend OEM replacement when it provides the best lifetime value — often costing less than repeated repairs at independent shops.

Front and Rear Brake Rotors

Front and rear rotors serve different roles on the 2010 Dodge Ram Pickup 3500 and understanding those differences helps you make better maintenance choices at Larry H. Miller Dodge RAM FIAT Tucson in Tucson, AZ. Front rotors handle the majority of braking force because weight shifts forward under deceleration; they typically wear faster, especially with heavy towing or frequent highway braking. Rear rotors provide balance and stability and often experience less heat and wear, but they can be subject to corrosion or uneven wear if parking brakes or calipers stick. Our certified technicians measure thickness, runout, and surface condition for both front and rear rotors and will explain whether resurfacing or replacement is the safest and most economical option. Choosing dealership service gives you OEM parts, precise machining when appropriate, documented service records, and warranty coverage—factors that reduce long-term costs and keep your truck safer on Arizona roads. We also run promotions and loyalty offers, so check our service specials before you visit. Ready to protect stopping power and towing reliability?
