2018 Chevrolet Malibu Brake Pads and Rotors
Replacing pads and rotors together for your 2018 Chevrolet Malibu is best practice to restore braking performance, pedal feel, and even wear. New pads on old, scored rotors can cause vibration, noise, and reduced stopping power; our technicians always inspect rotor thickness, runout, and surface condition and recommend resurfacing or replacement when necessary. At Stevinson Chevrolet we use OEM rotors and pads engineered to the same specifications as the factory parts, which helps maintain braking balance and prolong component life. Performing both services simultaneously reduces labor time in the long run and gives you consistent braking performance across all four corners. We include a full post-service inspection and test drive so you leave with confidence, and our service advisors will explain cost-effective options — from resurfacing to new OEM rotors — to fit your needs. To save on combined services, check our current service specials and schedule service online for a time that works with your schedule.
2018 Chevrolet Malibu Brake Replacement
Brake pad replacement on a 2018 Chevrolet Malibu typically takes about an hour per axle when no additional repairs are needed; full pad and rotor jobs can take two to three hours. Our technicians are factory-trained and equipped with OEM tooling to accelerate the process without cutting corners. That expertise lets Stevinson Chevrolet complete work faster than many independent shops while maintaining strict quality and safety standards. We maintain parts inventory and have dedicated service lanes for quick turnaround and same-day appointments when possible. During replacement we perform a multi-point brake inspection, address caliper slide lubrication, and torque to factory specs — steps that reduce rework and extend component life. We also explain the differences between resurfacing and replacement so you can make an informed choice, and we highlight long-term savings: properly installed OEM parts reduce vibration and uneven wear, meaning fewer visits over the vehicle’s life.

2018 Chevrolet Malibu Brake Warranty
Warranty protection matters. Repairs performed with OEM parts at a certified dealership help protect any applicable factory warranties and often carry additional parts and labor guarantees. If your 2018 Chevrolet Malibu is still within a coverage window for braking components, warranty work must be completed at a franchise dealer to ensure proper documentation and compliance with factory procedures. Even if factory warranty no longer applies, Stevinson Chevrolet stands behind our brake work with dealership-grade warranty options and a commitment to fix anything related to the job to your satisfaction. Choosing our service department gives you traceable records, courtesy inspections, and the peace of mind that updates are logged to your vehicle history — a benefit when you later sell or trade your Malibu. Ask our advisors about service financing, available warranties, and current service specials when you schedule service.
