How long do 2016 Chevrolet Spark EV rotors last?

Do you have to replace brake pads and rotors at the same time on a 2016 Chevrolet Spark EV?

• Not always, but pairing new pads with resurfaced or new rotors ensures even wear and optimal braking performance; our techs will recommend the best option for longevity and cost.
• When pads are heavily glazed or worn unevenly, replacing both at once avoids premature rotor damage and provides immediate, long-term savings.

What is the difference between resurfacing and replacing brake rotors?

• Resurfacing smooths the rotor surface to remove minor grooves and correct light warpage; replacement installs a new rotor when resurfacing can't restore safe thickness or surface integrity.
• Resurfacing can be a cost-effective short-term solution, but Stevinson Chevrolet evaluates long-term benefits and often recommends OEM replacements when they deliver better longevity and performance.
• Choosing the right option at our dealership can save money over time by preventing uneven wear and repeated service; warranty work must be handled at certified dealers to stay valid.
