The Best Mopar Brake Rotors
In order for your brakes to work right, the factory brake rotors need to be in good condition. You probably don't even think about them when they are working properly, since braking is such a simple act on your part. All the intricacies happen at the other end, though.
How do Brake Rotors Work?
Brake rotors are also called disc brakes. They're those circular discs that connect to your wheels. When you press the brake pedal, it forces brake fluid out of the master brake cylinder through a network of brake hoses and brake lines. That fluid causes your brake calipers to which compress the brake pads against the brake rotors. The friction generated by this act slows the rotation of your tires. With enough friction your vehicle stops completely.
Signs of Brake Rotor Trouble
The friction creates a lot of heat, which can eventually cause problems. If your calipers are clamping onto the brake rotors without pads to protect them, that leads to metal-on-metal contact. That's not good. Pay attention to signs like these:
- A grinding noise when you brake
- Needing more time and distance to stop
- A bouncing or vibrating brake pedal
If your brake pedal is bouncing, that's a sure sign of brake rotor problems that need to be addressed ASAP. Most likely your rotors are warped, which means the pads can no longer apply consistent pressure. The good news is that you can replace yours easily with the genuine Mopar brake rotors meant to fit your model's precise specifications.
