Hi , i have a 2023 challenger scatpack widebody . I’m at Dodge dealership and just got a quote for 5k for front break pads and rotors .

rep is saying when break pads get replaced , you have to replace rotors as well because it’s a slotted rotor that is paired when break pads get replaced ?

is this true to where we have to replace both rotors and break pads when pads are worn out on my Brembo 6 inch breaks in front ?

if this is true , any aftermarket parts because 5k due to break pads low is too much haha

Surface of rotors are good but he’s saying these are race cars and not regular cars where you only replace brake pads when worn . Need to replace both when pads need to be replaced because they are slotted rotors and brembo breaks .

19k miles on my scat pack widebody. Dealership service guy said these slotted rotors don't get re-surfaced when pads are replaced with new pads. Dealership re-surface rotors when new pads get replaced but since these types of rotors can't get resurfaced, they just replace pads with new rotors.
