How often should you replace the brake pads and rotors?

• Pad replacement intervals depend on driving style—performance driving or heavy city use shortens pad life; many drivers see 25,000–50,000 miles, but we’ll inspect your 2017 Subaru BRZ to recommend the right interval.
• Rotors typically last longer than pads but should be checked for thickness, warping, and scoring each inspection; replacing pads on worn rotors can reduce stopping performance.
• Regular inspections at the dealership catch wear early and save you money over time by avoiding secondary damage—another way our approach often costs less than independent shops in the long run.
• Book routine inspections or repairs via schedule service and check our service specials for savings.
