Front and Rear Brake Rotors

On the 2013 Volkswagen Jetta, front and rear rotors serve complementary roles but face different demands. Front rotors handle the majority of braking force because weight transfers forward under deceleration; as a result they commonly wear faster and may need replacement before rear rotors. Rear rotors still matter for balance and stability—especially in slippery conditions or during repeated stopping—and uneven wear between axles can cause vibration, premature pad wear, and uneven braking. At Larry H. Miller Volkswagen Lakewood in Lakewood, CO, our technicians assess both axles during service appointments to recommend the most cost-effective solution: resurfacing when thickness allows or full OEM replacement when necessary. We emphasize transparency—explaining the long-term costs of delaying repairs, the safety implications, and the warranty benefits of dealer-performed work.
