- Round disc connected to wheel
- Helps create the friction needed to stop the motion of your wheels
- Replace when worn to help with optimal brake performance
If your vehicle has a disc brake system, then it has disc brake rotors. These round metal plates are connected by the axle to each wheel, and you can usually see them inside the wheel. Your Nissan Disc Brake Rotor (Front)s are essential to your braking system because they use friction to help stop your vehicle. When you brake, the pad squeezes the Disc Brake Rotor (Front) to halt the movement of the wheels.
Your Disc Brake Rotor (Front)s begin with a smooth surface, but as they're exposed to friction and heat, this surface becomes worn. Rotors usually last 50,000 to 70,000 miles, but driving habits can affect this timeframe. Making sudden stops and riding your brakes can cause your Disc Brake Rotor (Front)s to wear out faster. Worn brake pads can also have a negative effect on the rotors.
Some symptoms of Disc Brake Rotor (Front) issues are vibration while braking, squealing while braking, and an illuminated brake light on the dashboard. You can inspect a Disc Brake Rotor (Front) by looking for visible cracks, grooves, rust, and warping. A failing Disc Brake Rotor (Front) might lead to poor braking performance and longer braking distances, so immediate replacement is critical. Usually, it's advised to replace rotors in pairs to help keep braking power balanced.
Your Nissan Disc Brake Rotor (Front)s can be replaced at home with the correct tools and training. You can also drop your car off at your local Nissan service center to have trained technicians carry out the replacement.
Whether you replace your Nissan Disc Brake Rotor (Front)s on your own or take your vehicle to a service center, you need to make sure you have the right part for your model and year. Shopping genuine OEM Nissan parts makes it easy to find the right fit for your vehicle.
