Automotive Tips from Muffler & Go: Rotor Problems

Posted April 27, 2025 3:43 AM

The brake rotor, or disc, is attached to your wheel. The brake pads rub on the rotor to slow your car when you are driving in Fenton.

Rotors can warp, crack or become misaligned. They can also be damaged by worn out brake pads that scratch grooves into the surface. These conditions result in less contact surface for the brake pads, leaving you with reduced braking power.

Over time and miles, rotors can also wear down below safe specifications. It is important for Fenton drivers to know that simply replacing brake pads on a wheel with a bad rotor will not solve the problem. Depending on their condition, rotors may be resurfaced or replaced.

Brake noise or a pulsation in the brake pedal are signs of potential brake problems that should be addressed right away. If you have any brake concerns, please have your friendly and professional Muffler & Go tech perform a thorough inspection.

The owner Chris and his team went above and beyond with my auto repair this week. I’ve taken my vehicles here for around 25 years. I had an estimate done in February for repairs I needed that they nearly matched with a small amount for updated parts pricing. My engine light came on the next day before I brought it in and threw a few different sensors. They got to the root of the issue and addressed them for me and did some other minor fixes to get my car ready for the road at no extra charge. It drives better now than when I got it. I also get my oil changes here and they are the lowest price I’ve found with fast turnaround. Don’t sleep on this long time locally owned gem with honest mechanics you can trust.
