Front and Rear Brake Rotors

Front rotors on a 2017 Kia Soul typically handle more braking load and therefore wear faster than rear rotors; they are often larger and dissipate more heat. Rear rotors or drums may last longer but can still suffer from corrosion and uneven wear. Understanding these differences helps prioritize repairs—front rotor problems commonly cause vibration and pulling, while rear issues may show as noise or reduced overall braking balance. At Herb Chambers Kia of Burlington we diagnose the exact cause and recommend OEM replacement or resurfacing based on measured thickness and manufacturer limits, and we explain the cost implications and safety impacts of delaying repairs.
