PADS ONLY per Axle ( no rotor turn or replacement of rotors). One of the most common auto brake repairs we perform at Patterson Nissan Longview is the replacement of brake pads (or shoes). Regardless of what they are made of (ceramic or metallic), brake pads wear down each time you step on the brake pedal – that’s how they work to stop your vehicle! By turning the rotors and replacing the brake pads, you can have the assurance that your car will stop each and every time!
