What is the difference between resurfacing and replacing brake rotors?

• Resurfacing machines the rotor to a smooth, true surface when thickness and condition allow; it’s a lower-cost option that restores pedal feel when within spec.
• Replacement is necessary when rotors are below minimum thickness, cracked, or too damaged to safely resurface; OEM replacements restore original performance and lifespan.
• Herb Chambers Chevrolet will recommend the safest, most cost-effective option and honor warranty terms when work is performed at our certified facility.
