2013 Kia Sorento Brake Pads and Rotors

The best long-term approach for safe, predictable stopping on your 2013 Kia Sorento is to service both brake pads and rotors together when inspection shows compromise. Replacing only pads on worn rotors can leave you with uneven contact, vibration, and reduced pad life—often costing more in the long run. At Herb Chambers Kia of Burlington our technicians inspect rotor thickness, runout, and surface condition using OEM tolerances; when rotors fall outside spec we recommend resurfacing or OEM replacement to restore smooth braking. Doing both pads and rotors in a single visit reduces labor duplication and minimizes downtime: one lift, one brake fluid check, one road test. We install genuine Kia or OEM-equivalent components to maintain ABS, traction control, and brake feel. You’ll also benefit from documented service records that support resale value and any applicable warranty claims. For cost savings, check our service specials, and if financing helps, ask our advisors about service financing so you can keep the vehicle safe today and pay over time. To arrange prompt attention from factory-trained techs, schedule service online and we’ll prepare an accurate estimate before we begin.
