Do you have to replace brake pads and rotors at the same time on a 2012 Hyundai Azera?

• Not always. If pads are worn but rotors are within spec and can be resurfaced, replacing only pads can be appropriate and cost-effective.
• However, when rotors are deeply scored, warped, or below minimum thickness, replacing both pads and rotors at once ensures proper bedding and braking performance.
• Courtesy Hyundai of Tampa inspects both components, recommends the optimal repair for safety and longevity, and documents savings from timely service.
• We also provide warranty-backed installations and offer service financing; book online to schedule service or view current service specials.
