Front and Rear Brake Rotors
Front and rear rotors on the 2015 Chevrolet Sonic serve different loads: front rotors typically bear more braking force and heat, so they often wear faster than rear rotors. That means front rotor replacement is more common, but rear rotors can fail prematurely due to caliper issues, corrosion, or uneven wear. At Stevinson Chevrolet our technicians inspect both axles, measure thickness and runout, and recommend resurfacing when safe to do so or full replacement when needed. We supply OEM rotors and perform precise machining and torque procedures to restore balanced braking. Ask about available discounts and our loyalty programs when you visit; check service specials before booking. Ready to protect your Sonic's stopping power?
