2018 Toyota Prius c Brake Pads and Rotors

Installing new pads on worn or scored rotors can lead to uneven pad wear, vibration, and premature rework. At Larry H.

We use Toyota OEM pads and rotors designed for the Prius c’s light-weight, hybrid-specific braking characteristics, which helps maintain regenerative braking balance and overall system harmony. Choosing the dealer means you get calibrated installation, factory torque specs, and proper bedding procedures so pads and rotors mate correctly for quieter, smoother stops.
