What is the difference between resurfacing and replacing brake rotors?

• Resurfacing re-machines the rotor face to remove light scoring and restore a smooth surface if thickness and runout are within factory tolerances; replacement is required when rotors are too thin, cracked, or warped beyond safe limits.
• At Mike Shaw Subaru our technicians measure precisely and recommend the most cost-effective and safe option. Resurfacing can save money short-term, but replacement with OEM rotors may provide longer service life and reduce total ownership costs.
• We back repairs with warranty coverage when performed at our certified facility and offer service financing to make quality repairs affordable.
