  • We offer service specials (service specials) and financing to make preventive care affordable.

Do you have to replace brake pads and rotors at the same time on a 2026 Subaru Crosstrek?

  • Not always, but replacing pads and rotors together often yields the best braking performance and longest service life for both components.
  • Our shop evaluates rotors for thickness, runout, and heat damage—if resurfacing is viable we’ll explain cost and longevity; if replacement is recommended we’ll explain why and show you the numbers for immediate and long-term savings.
  • Schedule an inspection or schedule appointment and ask about available warranty coverage.

How do you make 2026 Subaru Crosstrek brake pads last longer?

  • Practice smooth braking: anticipate stops and avoid repeated hard stops when possible.
  • Use OEM-approved pads and rotors from Mike Shaw Subaru Greeley to ensure correct materials and fit; our trained techs optimize bedding-in procedures that extend pad life.
  • Regular inspections and taking advantage of our service specials reduce the chance of accelerated wear and costly downstream repairs.

What are the signs of bad brake rotors?

  • Vibration or pulsation through the brake pedal, unusual noise, visible grooves or cracking, and reduced braking performance are common signs.
  • Our technicians perform precise rotor measurements and road tests to diagnose the issue quickly and recommend resurfacing or replacement with OEM parts.
  • We stand behind the work with transparent estimates, certified techs, and options for service financing.

How do you know when to replace brake rotors?

  • When rotors are below minimum thickness, warped beyond spec, or exhibit heat cracks; our inspection checks thickness, runout, and surface condition.
  • Replacing early prevents damage to pads, calipers, and ABS components—this is an example of long-term savings by choosing certified dealership service.
  • Book a check online to review repair options and available discounts: schedule service.

How often should you replace your 2026 Subaru Crosstrek rotors?

  • Replacement intervals depend on use; many drivers need rotors between 30,000–70,000 miles, but performance drivers or heavy towing can shorten that interval.
  • Regular inspections at Mike Shaw Subaru Greeley keep you informed and often cheaper over time due to correct preventative maintenance.
  • Ask our service advisors about service financing at checkout when you schedule service.

What is the difference between resurfacing and replacing brake rotors?

  • Resurfacing removes minor irregularities to restore a smooth braking surface; it’s a cost-effective option when thickness and structural integrity are within spec.
  • Replacement is required for rotors that are too thin, cracked, or severely warped; OEM replacements at Mike Shaw Subaru Greeley ensure fit, material compatibility, and preserved warranty coverage.
  • We explain the trade-offs clearly and provide transparent pricing and available service specials so you can decide with confidence.

Front and Rear Brake Rotors

On a 2026 Subaru Crosstrek, the front and rear rotors have distinct roles and wear patterns. Front rotors typically handle a greater share of braking force and heat because weight shifts forward under braking; as a result, front rotors often wear faster and may require attention sooner than rear rotors. Rear rotors assist with stability and parking brake function and, in many driving conditions, see less aggressive wear. At Mike Shaw Subaru Greeley in Greeley, CO, our certified technicians measure runout, thickness, and heat stress on both axles to recommend resurfacing or replacement only when it preserves safety and saves you money. We use OEM rotors and parts to maintain original stopping performance and ABS calibration. Take advantage of our service specials (service specials) and ask about loyalty program benefits when you schedule service. Our shop provides clear estimates, factory training, and quick turnaround so you can get back on the road with confidence.
