2020 Ford Explorer Brake Pads and Rotors

Replacing both brake pads and rotors at the same time often delivers the best long-term results for a 2020 Ford Explorer. New pads on worn rotors can lead to uneven contact, vibration, and accelerated pad wear. At Larry H. Miller Ford Mesa, we inspect both components and provide a clear recommendation: if rotors are below spec, warped, or heavily scored, replacing or resurfacing them during the pad change reduces noise, improves pedal feel, and extends the life of the new pads. Our technicians use OEM-grade rotors and balanced procedures to ensure consistent heat dissipation and optimal braking performance. We document measurements and show you the condition before work begins so you understand the value of doing both services together. Plus, our parts sourcing and in-house expertise reduce turnaround time compared with shops that must order parts externally. To protect braking performance and avoid repeat services, schedule service with us and ask about current service specials that make combined pad-and-rotor jobs more affordable.
