Do you have to replace brake pads and rotors at the same time on a 2017 Ford Flex?

• Not always—but pairing new pads with new or resurfaced rotors ensures optimal contact, braking performance, and even wear.
• Our technicians evaluate pad thickness and rotor condition; when pads are heavily worn or rotors are scored, replacement together is the safest, most cost-effective option.
• Any repairs covered under warranty must be performed at a certified dealership—our Ford-certified team protects your coverage and long-term value.

• We offer maintenance plans and financing so you can protect your vehicle now and preserve resale value later; schedule service to discuss options.

How do you know when to replace brake rotors?

• Replacing rotors at the right time avoids damage to pads, calipers, and ABS systems—saving money long term and preserving vehicle safety.
• To get a precise assessment and written estimate, schedule service with our Ford-trained team in Draper, UT.

How often should you replace your 2017 Ford Flex rotors?

• Frequency varies; many drivers replace rotors every 40,000–70,000 miles, but inspection intervals are the key to avoiding surprises.
• Our service advisors recommend routine checks during oil changes and major service visits so minor issues can be corrected early under warranty when applicable.
• Ask about our loyalty programs and service specials to help manage maintenance costs.

What is the difference between resurfacing and replacing brake rotors?

• Resurfacing (machining) smooths the rotor surface to restore even contact; replacement installs a new rotor when resurfacing would leave diameter or thickness below safe limits.
• At Larry H. Miller Ford Lincoln Draper we recommend resurfacing only when it meets OEM thickness specs; otherwise we install genuine Ford rotors to ensure performance and maintain warranty.
• Choosing the dealership often means lower lifecycle costs because repairs are done right, with certified technicians, documented service history, and available financing.
