Warped, grooved, or worn-out rotors? Direct Brakes replaces them with brand-new rotors at your home or office — never resurfaced, always fresh. Same-day mobile service backed by a 12-month warranty.
Rotors don't fail overnight — they give you warning signs. Here's what to watch for.
Pulsing or shaking through the steering wheel when braking is the most common sign of warped front rotors.
Metal-on-metal grinding means pads are gone and the backing plate is cutting into the rotor surface. This needs immediate attention.
Run your finger across the rotor face. If you feel deep ridges, lips, or grooves, the surface is too damaged for new pads to seat properly.
If your car takes noticeably longer to stop, thin or warped rotors could be reducing your braking surface area and effectiveness.
A visible ridge around the rotor's outer edge means significant material has worn away. This rotor is past minimum thickness and should be replaced.
A rhythmic pumping sensation through the brake pedal — especially at highway speeds — signals uneven rotor surfaces that need replacing.
