Front and Rear Brake Rotors

Front and rear rotors play distinct roles on the 2010 Subaru Outback. Because braking weight shifts forward, front rotors typically handle more heat and wear, making them more likely to require service sooner than rear rotors. Rear rotors are still essential for balance and ABS function—neglecting them can lead to uneven pad wear, longer stopping distances, and potential damage to calipers. Mike Shaw Subaru Greeley inspects both axles and recommends resurfacing when possible or OEM replacement when necessary. We explain the cost implications of delaying service—such as warped rotors causing vibration, damaged pads, and increased labor—and how dealership repairs preserve warranty coverage and long-term ownership value.
