Common Brake Pad and Rotor Intervals
Compared to oil changes and tire rotations, brakes have broad service windows that change with vehicle usage. Since brake pads and rotors utilize different metal compounds, they tend to wear out at different rates. Brake pads often receive replacement every 20,000 to 30,000 miles, while brake rotors can last anywhere from 40,000 to 50,000 in optimal conditions.
We encourage drivers to receive periodic brake inspections to ensure that their vehicles remain safe and comfortable. Owners and operators who off-road, tow trailers, or spend time on the race track may need to replace their brakes more often. If you have any questions regarding the ideal service interval for your vehicle, don't hesitate to speak with a member of our advising team.
