What is the difference between resurfacing and replacing brake rotors?

• Resurfacing (turning) smooths minor imperfections and restores runout if sufficient thickness remains; replacement is required when rotors are below minimum thickness or heavily damaged.
• At Coggin Nissan at the Avenues, we measure rotor thickness and runout, explain the repair options, and recommend the most cost-effective solution that protects braking performance.
• Dealer workmanship and OEM parts often deliver longer intervals between services and better long-term value compared with one-off repairs, which means immediate and future savings.
