How often should you replace the brake pads and rotors on a 2012 Acura RDX?

2012 Acura RDX Brake Pads and Rotors
Replacing brake pads alone on a 2012 Acura RDX can restore initial bite, but pairing new pads with properly measured rotors delivers the best long-term result. At Crown Acura Richmond we inspect rotor thickness, runout and surface condition with OEM tolerances in mind, so we only recommend rotor replacement when necessary. Slotted or resurfaced rotors may help performance in some situations, but using non‑OEM or improperly matched components can create vibration, uneven wear and reduced stopping power. Our technicians use manufacturer-specified parts and calibrated equipment so pad material and rotor dimensions match exactly, which improves pedal feel, reduces noise, and extends the life of both components. We also account for the RDX’s turbocharged power and vehicle weight to ensure the braking system meets safety expectations. When you elect to have pads and rotors done together, you get a more consistent friction surface, balanced heat dissipation and fewer follow-up visits—delivering real value and long-term cost savings.
