Front and Rear Brake Rotors

Front and rear rotors play different roles on the 2013 Volkswagen Tiguan. The front rotors handle a larger share of braking forces and usually wear faster due to weight transfer during stops; rear rotors often last longer but can suffer from corrosion, uneven wear, or caliper issues. When only one axle shows problems, we evaluate whether resurfacing or axle-specific replacement is best for safety and cost. Choosing OEM rotors and certified installation at Larry H. Miller Volkswagen Avondale reduces the chance of premature wear and ensures parts meet Volkswagen specifications. We routinely combine rotor work with related services—pad replacement, caliper inspection, and wheel alignment—to avoid repeat visits and deliver long-term value.
