Front and Rear Brake Rotors

Understanding the difference between front and rear rotors is key to keeping your 2018 Honda Clarity safe and reliable on Jacksonville roads. Front rotors typically handle more braking load, which makes them more susceptible to heat buildup and wear; that’s why front components often require service sooner than rears. Rear rotors still play a vital role—especially in balance, parking brake function, and regenerative braking integration on hybrid systems—but their wear pattern is often milder. At Coggin Honda Jacksonville, our technicians measure thickness, check runout, and evaluate heat scoring and pad contact on both axles. When front rotors show excessive taper or warpage, continuing to drive can cause uneven pad wear, reduced stopping distance, and possible damage to calipers—leading to higher repair bills. We emphasize OEM replacements or precision resurfacing only when safe, and we explain costs clearly alongside available service specials and financing options.
