  • Our techs will measure pad thickness and rotor condition and explain if resurfacing is viable or a full replacement is recommended.
  • We back repairs with warranty coverage; note that warranty repairs must be performed at a certified dealership to remain valid.

How do you make 2018 Ram Promaster Cargo Van brake pads last longer?

  • Regular inspections and timely rotor resurfacing at our service center prevent pad glazing and uneven wear.
  • Ask about our maintenance plans, and schedule service for an inspection and personalized advice.

What are the signs of bad brake rotors?

  • Squeaking or grinding noises, a pulsing brake pedal, vibration during braking, or visible scoring on the rotor surface are common signs.
  • Ignoring these symptoms can increase repair costs and reduce stopping power — our dealership addresses issues quickly to save you money long term.
  • Book an inspection to diagnose symptoms and review repair options under warranty or through available service financing.

How do you know when to replace brake rotors?

  • Technicians measure rotor thickness and check for heat damage, warping, and scoring — when below spec or unsafe, replacement is recommended.
  • We explain inspection findings clearly and offer OEM parts, warranty options, and cost-saving service recommendations.
  • To protect vehicle resale and safety, schedule appointment at our Denver service center for a definitive evaluation.

How often should you replace your 2018 Ram Promaster Cargo Van rotors?

  • Plan inspections every 12 months or at scheduled services; our technicians will recommend resurfacing or replacement during routine checks.
  • Take advantage of our service specials and service financing to keep maintenance current without surprising bills.

What is the difference between resurfacing and replacing brake rotors?

  • Resurfacing smooths the rotor surface to remove light scoring and restore even contact; it’s cost-effective when thickness and tolerances allow.
  • Replacement is required for rotors that are below minimum thickness, cracked, or too warped for safe resurfacing; it ensures consistent braking for heavy-duty use.
  • Our technicians will recommend the safest, most economical option, backed by OEM parts and warranty coverage at Larry H. Miller Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram 104th in Denver, CO.

Front and Rear Brake Rotors

Front and rear rotors serve different roles on the 2018 Ram Promaster Cargo Van — the front rotors handle most of the braking force and heat, so they commonly wear faster than rear rotors. The front axle does heavy-duty stopping and is more prone to heat-related wear, while rear rotors help stabilize braking and share load under heavy cargo. When front rotors develop scoring, taper, or warping, you may feel pedal pulsation or steering wheel vibration; ignoring those signs risks uneven pad wear and higher repair costs. Our Denver service team performs balanced inspections, recommending resurfacing when dimensions permit and replacement when rotors fall below safe thickness. We emphasize transparency: repairs include OEM parts, technician certification, and clear pricing with immediate and long-term savings compared to deferred maintenance. Check our service specials and schedule appointment online to keep both axles performing reliably and protect your van’s braking system for years.
