Brake Rotor Resurfacing

Toyota Brake Rotor Resurfacing Process

Brake rotor resurfacing is a simple procedure during which a very thin layer of the brake rotor surface is removed using what's known as a brake lathe. The goal of the procedure is to get rid of any brake pad residue and corrosion that has developed on the rotor since the last time it was serviced. Having your rotors resurfaced can extend their lifespan. Like any other part of your braking system, your rotors will experience everyday wear and tear. Eventually, you'll need to have your rotors completely replaced.

Stay On Top of Brake Rotor Services

Continuing to drive a vehicle long-term without brake rotor resurfacing can have some negative consequences. Residue on brake rotors can cause vibrations in the vehicle when the brakes are applied. This can be alarming for the driver and make it so that the driver has less control over the vehicle. Rotors that need service might lead to a slower braking response. This puts a vehicle more at risk of being involved in an accident.

Replacing vs. Resurfacing your Toyota Brake Rotors

You should have your rotors inspected periodically. During any multi-point inspection, your technician should look at your rotors as well as your entire braking system. Discuss whether you need to have your rotors serviced with your technician. If your rotors are still thick enough, you may be able to have them resurfaced. However, when your rotors get to the point that they are excessively thin, they will need to be replaced rather than resurfaced.
