2014 Mercedes-Benz G-Class G550 Rotor Replacement Price

The most common brake rotor issues on a 2014 Mercedes‑Benz G‑Class G550 include scoring, warping from heat, uneven wear caused by contaminated pads, and thickness loss from aggressive driving or towing. Left unaddressed, each problem causes increased stopping distance, vibration while braking, accelerated tire and pad wear, and potentially more costly future repairs such as caliper damage or ABS sensor issues. At Mercedes‑Benz of Draper we offer clear estimates that account for OEM part costs, labor, and any necessary machining or replacement. Our transparent pricing highlights the immediate savings of correcting issues early and the long-term value of dealer-performed repairs: properly installed OEM rotors and pads reduce repeat visits and protect resale value. We back repairs with manufacturer-aligned warranty coverage (repairs covered under warranty must be performed at a certified dealership), offer service financing to make essential repairs affordable, and display current service specials to maximize your savings. For a no-surprise estimate or to compare resurfacing vs. replacement, schedule service with our factory-trained team in Draper.

Front and Rear Brake Rotors

Front and rear rotors perform different roles on a 2014 Mercedes‑Benz G‑Class G550. The front rotors typically handle the majority of braking force and therefore wear faster, especially under heavy braking, frequent towing, or spirited driving. Rear rotors often last longer but can suffer from uneven wear if calipers or pads bind. Understanding these differences helps you prioritize repairs: a noisy front rotor that vibrates under braking poses a greater immediate safety concern than a slightly worn rear rotor. Mercedes‑Benz of Draper inspects both axles, measures rotor thickness, and checks for runout to recommend the most cost-effective solution — resurfacing when safe, or OEM replacement when necessary. We highlight promotions and loyalty programs, and our service advisors will help you find applicable service specials.
