During service, we measure rotor thickness and inspect for grooves and runout on your 2013 Mercedes-Benz C-Class. If rotors remain within specification and are smooth, new pads can be installed with rotor resurfacing only when appropriate; otherwise, pads and rotors are replaced together to restore proper stopping and reduce vibration.

- Pad/rotor pairing preserves braking balance and NVH.

Continuing to drive can increase stopping distances and lead to more costly repairs. Our Lynnfield team can evaluate pad thickness and rotor health the same visit.
