Front and Rear Brake Rotors

The 2012 Volkswagen Routan requires thoughtful attention to both front and rear rotors. Front rotors typically bear the brunt of braking forces and heat, so they wear faster than rear rotors; the Routan’s front-wheel-drive layout and V6 power mean the front braking system often encounters higher loads during everyday driving. Rear rotors perform important stabilization and balancing roles, but because they usually handle less braking energy, their replacement cadence can be longer. At Larry H. Miller Volkswagen Lakewood in Lakewood, CO, our technicians carefully inspect both axles and recommend OEM parts and precise installation to preserve braking balance and safety. We communicate clearly about resurfacing versus replacement, and we disclose immediate and long-term savings from doing the job correctly the first time.
