2012 Lincoln MKT Brake Pads and Rotors

When it’s time to refresh stopping performance on your 2012 Lincoln MKT, replacing brake pads and rotors together is often the safest and most cost-effective choice. New pads mated to worn rotors can cause uneven wear, vibration, and reduced braking efficiency; our technicians always inspect both components and recommend the best path forward—resurfacing rotors when appropriate or replacing them with OEM parts when necessary. Performing pads and rotors simultaneously extends component life and improves pedal feel, reduces noise, and restores factory stopping distances. At Herb Chambers Lincoln of Norwood we use Lincoln-approved pads and rotors, proper torque procedures, and calibrated diagnostics to ensure the system is balanced and the anti-lock and stability systems function correctly after service. To protect long-term value and performance, we discuss each option and show any worn parts during service. Ready to proceed?
