What is the difference between resurfacing and replacing brake rotors?

• Resurfacing (machining) removes minor grooves and restores a smooth face when rotor thickness and integrity remain within specs; it can be a cost-saving option for lightly worn rotors.
• Replacement is required when rotors are below minimum thickness, warped beyond correction, cracked, or heat-damaged—replacement restores correct spec and safety.
• Park Place Volvo evaluates each rotor and recommends the safest, most economical option; all replacements use OEM-quality parts and are performed by factory-trained technicians.
