Front and Rear Brake Rotors

The front and rear rotors on a 2018 Toyota RAV4 perform the same basic task—convert kinetic energy into heat to slow the vehicle—but load and wear patterns differ, and that affects service strategy. Front rotors typically bear a heavier share of braking force because weight transfers forward during braking; as a result, front rotors often wear faster and may require resurfacing or replacement earlier than rear rotors. Rear rotors assist with stability and parking brake functions and can suffer from corrosion or localized wear if pads or hardware bind. At Larry H. Miller Toyota Murray in Murray, UT, our technicians evaluate both front and rear systems during a single appointment and recommend OEM parts or resurfacing when appropriate. We explain the costs of delayed repairs—warped rotors can damage pads, calipers, and wheel bearings—and show how timely service delivers immediate savings and lowers lifetime maintenance costs.
