Front and Rear Brake Rotors
The braking system on your 2026 Dodge Hornet relies on front and rear rotors that perform distinct roles. Front rotors typically handle more braking load because weight shifts forward under deceleration, so they often wear faster than rear rotors. Rear rotors provide balance and stability, and their wear pattern depends on driving habits and whether the Hornet is regularly carrying heavy loads. At Larry H. Miller Dodge RAM FIAT Tucson in Tucson, AZ, our certified technicians inspect both axles, measure rotor thickness, and check for warpage, grooves, or uneven wear. We explain whether resurfacing or replacement will deliver the best long-term outcome and how OEM rotors preserve ABS and vehicle stability systems. We also highlight any available promotions; visit our service specials page for current offers. Choosing dealership service adds value: factory-trained technicians, genuine parts, and warranty protection reduce the chance of repeat visits.
