Your Acura MDX brake rotors are basically one-piece metal discs mounted on your axles, where they spin along with your wheels. Brake rotors are an essential component of your car’s disc braking system that have several jobs to perform. The main function of your MDX brake rotors, which are also known as brake discs, is to work with your brake pads and generate friction that stops the rotation of your wheels.
Each time you step on your brake pedal, the brake pads on either side of your Acura MDX brake rotors are brought into contact with the surface of the rotors. Since friction generates heat as well, your brakes have to have some way to cool off and avoid brake fade. Your MDX brake rotors assist with this task, cooling both braking surfaces as they spin rapidly.
Another function of your brake rotors is to keep your brakes clean by throwing off dirt, mud, and water through centrifugal force. Problems with your Acura MDX brake rotors most often occur when the lining of your brake pads becomes worn to the metal backing plate, or when you have metallic brake pads installed—in either case, metal grinding on metal will wear down the surface of your rotors. You may be alerted to rotor wear through a shuddering brake pedal, or a loud grating sound that indicated your brake pads are worn down to metal.
