should i replace brake pads and rotors at the same time on a 2021 Lexus NX 300h?

Our technicians measure rotor thickness and inspect for heat spots, scoring, and runout on the 2021 Lexus NX 300h. If rotors meet specification and have a proper surface, pads-only can be performed; if not, pads and rotors should be replaced together to prevent vibration and noise. You’ll receive measurements in writing before you decide.
