Front and Rear Brake Rotors

The braking system on a 2016 Hyundai Sonata Plug-in Hybrid relies on both front and rear rotors, but front rotors typically handle a larger share of braking force and therefore wear faster. Front rotors take on more kinetic energy during stops, especially from highway speeds or heavy city braking, so they often require service sooner than rear rotors. Rear rotors assist with balance and emergency stopping, and on some hybrids regenerative braking reduces rear wear—but corrosion, uneven pad wear, or hard stops will still impact longevity. At Stevinson Hyundai in Colorado, our certified technicians precisely diagnose which rotors need resurfacing or replacement, measuring thickness and runout to OEM specs. We use OEM parts and offer transparent pricing so you understand immediate versus lifecycle costs; fixing a single rotor problem early avoids uneven wear that can lead to costly repairs later. Check our current service specials and consider service financing to get the work done now and pay over time.
