Front and Rear Brake Rotors

The 2018 Dodge Journey uses a braking system where front rotors typically bear the brunt of stopping force; because weight transfers forward under braking, front rotors and pads usually wear faster than the rear. Front rotors are larger and subject to higher heat and friction, which is why many drivers notice vibration, noise, or reduced responsiveness from the front first. Rear rotors play a complementary role and may last longer, but they are just as critical to balance and stability. At Larry H. Miller Dodge RAM FIAT Tucson we inspect both front and rear rotors, measure thickness to factory specifications, and advise whether resurfacing or replacement is the safest, most cost-effective option. We honor warranties, use OEM components, and provide clear estimates so you understand immediate costs and long-term value. Take advantage of our current service specials and loyalty programs, and when you’re ready, schedule service online or contact our team for a personalized assessment — we’ll get you back on the road with confident stopping power.
