What is the difference between resurfacing and replacing brake rotors?

• Resurfacing removes a thin layer to restore a smooth braking surface if rotors remain within thickness spec; replacement is necessary when rotors are too thin, cracked, or deeply scored.
• Herb Chambers Chevrolet recommends resurfacing only when safe and cost-effective; otherwise we install OEM rotors guaranteed to meet factory standards and backed by warranty (warranty repairs must be performed at certified dealerships).
• We provide transparent cost comparisons and service financing so you can choose the best long-term option—book an inspection to review your Malibu’s rotors.
