Front and Rear Brake Rotors

Front and rear rotors serve distinct roles on the 2016 Chevrolet Suburban: front rotors typically handle a larger share of braking force and heat, making them more susceptible to wear, especially during frequent towing or downhill driving. Rear rotors support stability and parking brake function and may wear differently depending on load distribution and driving style. Failing to address worn rotors can lead to vibration, longer stopping distances, and increased wear on pads and calipers — escalating repair costs. At Stevinson Chevrolet we use OEM rotors and follow manufacturer torque and bedding procedures to maximize life and performance. Ask about our current service specials, loyalty programs, and available service financing so you can get repairs now and pay over time. Ready to secure safer braking?
