Front and Rear Brake Rotors
The braking system on a 2023 Kia Sorento Plug-In Hybrid divides load between front and rear rotors: front rotors handle most stopping force because weight shifts forward during braking, so they typically wear faster and may require attention sooner. Rear rotors support balance and stability, and they also contribute to electronic systems like ABS and regenerative braking behavior in the plug-in hybrid system. At Nalley Kia in GA we explain these dynamics clearly and inspect both axles to diagnose uneven wear, scoring, or deformation. When a front rotor shows grooves, vibration, or overheating signs, replacing it promptly prevents uneven pad wear and can protect wheel bearings and suspension components from collateral damage—this saves money over time and improves safety. Our technicians use OEM-spec rotors and torque procedures to preserve brake feel and sensor function; we also offer convenient online booking. To reserve a time, schedule service and check for current service specials that reduce immediate cost while delivering long-term value.
