2018 Hyundai Santa Fe Brake Pads and Rotors

The safest, most cost-effective approach for a 2018 Hyundai Santa Fe is to have pads and rotors evaluated together. Replacing pads alone on worn rotors can lead to uneven wear, noise, and reduced stopping power; pairing new pads with resurfaced or new rotors ensures consistent contact, proper bedding, and longer component life. At Stevinson Hyundai our technicians measure rotor thickness, surface condition, and pad material to recommend the optimal repair plan. When we replace both pads and rotors, we use genuine Hyundai parts engineered to the vehicle’s specifications, and we balance and torque wheels to factory standards. This reduces the chance of vibration and extends the intervals between service visits. We also factor in immediate cost savings from our ongoing service specials and the long-term savings achieved by reducing premature wear. To keep your 2018 Hyundai Santa Fe performing like new, schedule service with our certified technicians — we’ll inspect both components and give you a transparent estimate before any work begins.
