Volkswagen has earned a stellar reputation for manufacturing vehicles that are known for their safety, reliability, performance, and luxury. The braking system on your Volkswagen is no exception and is manufactured with the best quality parts that money can buy. However, like every other part on your Volkswagen, the braking system requires regular preventative maintenance to ensure that the various components do not break down earlier than anticipated, including the brake rotors, brake fluid, and brake pads.
Your Volkswagen brake rotors are circular discs manufactured from metal and connected to each of the four wheels. When you depress the brake pedal, the purpose of the rotors is to stop the wheels from turning by using intense friction. Given the extreme heat generated by the brake calipers to stop the wheels, it is not surprising that the rotors can become scratched, grooved, or damaged until they are no longer effective in stopping your Volkswagen. When this happens, it is time to schedule an appointment at Legend Volkswagen in Amityville, NY, for a Volkswagen brake rotor resurfacing appointment.
Brake rotors perform at their highest level when their surface is entirely flat because this can generate the most friction possible. Over time, the rotors can develop blemishes such as warping, scratches, and grooves that limit friction and can make your Volkswagen take longer to stop than before. Often, the surface of the rotors can be repaired and polished to restore the new appearance that enables them to safely stop your Volkswagen. If not, your service advisor at Legend Volkswagen may recommend that you replace your brake rotors with genuine OEM rotors straight from the Volkswagen factory.
