  • Replacement is necessary when rotors are below minimum thickness, cracked, or damaged beyond resurfacing limits; replacement guarantees spec performance and longevity.
  • At Park Place Lexus Grapevine, we guide you toward the option that yields the best immediate and long-term value—and warranty-covered repairs must be completed at a certified dealership.

Front and Rear Brake Rotors

The 2013 Lexus ES 300h uses a front-weighted braking system where the front rotors typically handle more braking force and heat than the rear rotors; that means front rotors often wear faster and may require replacement sooner. Front rotors absorb the bulk of braking energy during deceleration, so uneven pad wear or aggressive driving can accelerate front rotor degradation. Rear rotors, while less stressed, are still critical for overall stability and balanced stopping. At Park Place Lexus Grapevine we inspect both axles, measure rotor thickness, and assess runout to recommend resurfacing or replacement based on manufacturer specs. We use OEM parts and follow Lexus repair procedures to maintain ride quality and braking feel. Take advantage of our service specials, ask about service financing, and schedule service online—our certified technicians, transparent pricing, and customer-first processes make it easy to get safe brakes on the road quickly.
