2013 Lincoln MKT Brake Pads and Rotors

When you bring your 2013 Lincoln MKT to Herb Chambers Lincoln of Norwood for brake pads and rotors, we evaluate the entire braking system to recommend the most cost-effective and safest solution. Replacing pads alone on worn rotors can lead to uneven wear, noise, and reduced braking efficiency; replacing pads and rotors together restores factory performance, reduces vibration, and avoids premature future repairs. Our technicians use genuine OEM rotors and pads engineered for the MKT's weight and performance characteristics—especially important for the twin-turbo V6 and all-wheel-drive drivetrain. We will always inspect and measure rotor thickness, pad material, and caliper function, documenting findings and giving a clear, itemized estimate. For customers who want to optimize cost, we offer resurfacing when appropriate, but never at the expense of safety. Combine this service with one of our current service specials to maximize savings, and if needed, use our service financing to handle repairs now and pay over time. To get started, schedule service and ask about OEM options and recommended bedding procedures.
