Do you have to replace brake pads and rotors at the same time on a 2010 Hyundai Sonata?

• Not always, but pairing new pads with good-condition rotors ensures optimal performance and even wear; if rotors are scored or warped we recommend replacing both to maintain braking reliability.

• Early detection at Arapahoe Hyundai prevents more expensive repairs—schedule service for a quick diagnostic from our certified techs.

How do you know when to replace brake rotors?

• Rotors should be replaced when thickness falls below manufacturer specs, when severe scoring or cracking is present, or when resurfacing won't restore surface integrity.
• Our technicians measure rotor thickness and provide a clear estimate so you understand immediate cost and long-term savings from correct repair choices.

How often should you replace your 2010 Hyundai Sonata rotors?

• Replacement intervals vary—many owners require attention between 50,000 and 70,000 miles; aggressive driving or towing can shorten that interval.
• Routine inspections at Arapahoe Hyundai catch wear earlier and can often extend rotor life through balancing, pad selection, or resurfacing when appropriate.

What is the difference between resurfacing and replacing brake rotors?

• Resurfacing machine-turns the rotor to restore a smooth surface when thickness and integrity remain within manufacturer specifications.
• Replacement is required when rotors are too thin, cracked, or warped beyond resurfacing limits; our technicians advise the most cost-effective and safest option, and warranty repairs must be done at a certified dealership.
