2017 Ram 3500 Brake Pads and Rotors

Replacing both brake pads and rotors on a 2017 Ram 3500 together is a smart investment in braking performance and longevity. When new pads are installed on worn rotors, braking smoothness and pad life suffer; uneven rotor surfaces accelerate wear and can cause vibration, noise, and inconsistent stopping power. At Herb Chambers Chrysler Dodge Jeep RAM FIAT of Millbury we inspect both components thoroughly and provide a clear recommendation—you’ll never be charged for unnecessary services. Our technicians use OEM-grade rotors and pads matched to the heavy-duty specifications of a 2017 Ram 3500, preserving pedal feel, ABS responsiveness and towing safety. Completing pad and rotor work together reduces the likelihood of repeat labor and provides better long-term value than piecemeal repairs. We also replace related hardware—clips, shims and sensors—when needed to ensure the entire system functions as intended. Take advantage of our transparent estimates, current service specials, and service financing options; you can schedule service online for a reliable, factory-standard repair experience that protects your truck and your budget.
