2026 Dodge Hornet Brake Pads and Rotors

Replacing both brake pads and rotors at the same time is often the smartest way to restore braking performance and maximize safety for your 2026 Dodge Hornet. Worn rotors can shorten the life of new pads, cause vibration or pulsing during braking, and reduce stopping consistency. Our technicians perform a full assessment of pad thickness, rotor runout, and surface condition before recommending a combined service. When pads and rotors are replaced together using OEM components, you get a precise fit, predictable pedal feel, and longer service intervals—translating into fewer visits and lower lifetime cost. We also clean and inspect caliper slides and hardware, verify ABS sensor condition, and torque to factory specs so the entire system performs as designed. Scheduling pads and rotors together lets us optimize labor time and often reduces the overall price compared with separate jobs.

If financing is needed, we can provide options so you can complete the work now and pay over time.

At Bill Estes Chrysler Dodge Jeep RAM we use OEM parts and maintain service records that support warranty claims. If a covered component needs replacement, we’ll handle submission and paperwork to minimize hassles for you.
