Brakes and Rotary

IIf when you brake, your vehicle or steering wheel vibrates or shakes, your rotor may be uneven in thickness. The brake rotors are larges discs inside your wheels, when you hit the brakes, the pads push against the rotors to slow your car down and stop your wheels spinning.

The friction created when you break will naturally wear down the surface of a rotor, causing them to become potentially uneven. If left uneven, your rotor will continue to wear down in the areas it is uneven, which could cause dangerous implications in the long term. The brake pad transferring unevenly is what causes the vibration, the uneven nature of the rotors causes a pulling of your vehicle to one side.

A brake service will smooth or even out the rotor of your vehicle to stabilise your braking and correct the flaws and wobbling. Sometimes, if the rotors have been worn down to a large extent, they may need replacing fully.
