Front and Rear Brake Rotors

Front rotors on a 2018 Lincoln MKT typically endure more stress because the front axle handles the majority of braking force, which can cause them to wear faster than rear rotors. Rear rotors still require attention—imbalanced wear leads to pull or instability. Herb Chambers Lincoln of Norwood inspects both axles, checks pad wear patterns, measures rotor thickness, and recommends resurfacing when appropriate or replacement when safe limits are exceeded. We also promote loyalty benefits and current promotions—visit our service specials—and we explain why OEM parts and certified installation matter for braking performance.
