It includes 7 key steps: visual inspection, pad measurement, rotor thickness check, hardware replacement, brake fluid check, caliper slide lubrication, and a road test.
These steps align with Toyotaās approach to consistent pedal feel and quiet operation on the 2025 Toyota 4Runner. Documented measurements guide whether pads, rotors, or both are needed. Youāll receive results before any work proceeds, plus recommendations tailored to your driving in and around Medford.

Should I replace brake pads and rotors at the same time on a 2025 Toyota 4Runner?
Replace both only if rotor thickness or condition is below Toyotaās minimum spec; otherwise pads alone may be appropriate.
Our technicians measure rotor thickness and inspect for heat spots, grooves, and runout. If rotors are within spec and surfaces are healthy, pad-only service can be a sound choice. If theyāre undersized or damaged, pairing pads with rotors preserves braking performance and helps avoid premature pad wear.
- Rotor measurement against Toyota minimum spec
- Surface assessment for grooves, hotspots, runout
- Clear recommendation with before/after measurements
Is it worth getting brakes done at the dealer vs an independent shop in Medford?
