- Round disc connected to wheel
- Helps create the friction needed to stop the motion of your wheels
- Replace when worn to help with optimal brake performance
If your vehicle has a disc brake system, then it has disc brake rotors. These circular metal plates are connected to each wheel via the axle, and are usually visible inside the wheel. Your Nissan Disc Brake Rotor (Front)s are important to your braking system because they help stop your vehicle with friction. When you press your brakes, the pads squeeze the Disc Brake Rotor (Front)s to halt the motion of the wheels.
Your Disc Brake Rotor (Front)s start with a smooth surface, but as they experience friction and heat, this surface wears down. Rotors tend to last 50,000 to 70,000 miles, but driving habits can greatly impact this timeframe. Riding your brakes and stopping abruptly can wear out your Disc Brake Rotor (Front)s faster. Worn brake pads can also have a negative effect on the rotors.
Some signs there's an issue with your Disc Brake Rotor (Front) include an illuminated brake light on the dash, squealing while braking, and vibration while braking. You can inspect a Disc Brake Rotor (Front) by looking for visible cracks, grooves, rust, and warping. A worn Disc Brake Rotor (Front) may lead to longer braking distances and poor braking performance, so quick replacement is critical. Usually, it's advised you replace your rotors in pairs to help the braking power stay balanced.
You can replace your Nissan Disc Brake Rotor (Front)s by yourself with the correct tools and training. You can also drop your car off at your local Nissan service center to have trained technicians complete the replacement.
Whether you replace your Nissan Disc Brake Rotor (Front)s on your own or bring your vehicle to a service center, you want to ensure you have the correct part for your Nissan Altima. Shopping genuine OEM Nissan parts makes it easy to find the right fit for your vehicle.
