2017 Ram 1500 Brake Pads and Rotors

Replacing brake pads and rotors together on your 2017 Ram 1500 delivers reliable stopping power and long-term value. When pads are new but rotors are worn or warped, the new pads will bed unevenly and wear prematurely, creating noise, vibration, and the need for follow-up service. Our technicians always perform a full inspection and recommend the right combination of pads and rotors for your driving needs — whether you haul heavy loads, tow, or drive primarily in town. We use OEM-grade rotors and pads matched to Ram specifications; this preserves ABS calibration and braking feel while reducing the risk of premature wear. Choosing Kahlo Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram also gives you access to factory-trained techs, modern diagnostic tools, and documented procedures that independents may not offer. To save on parts and labor, view our service specials or schedule service online and ask about available service financing so you can get both pads and rotors serviced now and pay over time.
