  • All warranty repairs must be performed by certified dealerships to maintain coverage; schedule appointment to discuss options and available service specials.

Front and Rear Brake Rotors

The front and rear rotors on a 2018 Kia K900 serve distinct roles: front rotors typically handle the majority of braking load because weight transfers forward during stops, so fronts often wear faster and may require replacement sooner than rears. Rear rotors provide balance, stability, and parking-brake function. On a luxury V8 like the 2018 Kia K900, OEM rotor specifications and correct torqueing are essential to maintain the vehicle’s refined braking feel and safety. Herb Chambers Kia of Burlington in Burlington, MA, uses factory-specified rotor and hardware replacements and precision machining when resurfacing is acceptable. That means consistent pedal feel, quieter operation, and accurate ABS performance. We explain the pros and cons of resurfacing versus replacement, share inspection measurements, and provide clear estimates so you understand immediate costs and future savings. Take advantage of our service specials, ask about service financing, and schedule service online for a prompt appointment with certified technicians.
