that will depend on the typy of lining on the brakepads and how hard you stop and how often but you should see around 40,000 mile on the front even longer on the rear if everything is correct

How many miles before you should change your rotors?
As long as your rotors are not warped, or you have not let the brake pads wear to the point they defaced the rotors, there is no need to change them. Just install new brake pads. Rotors can last the life of the car.

How long do brake pads and brake rotors usually last in a 2003 Acura MDX?

Why replace brake rotors?
Brake rotors are subject to a lot of heat and wear. After a period of time, they warp and have to be "turned". turning the rotors actually makes them thinner so they won't last as long as they did. Everytime they are turned, the thinner they get. There is a point where they are too thin to safely use. That point is stamped on the rotors and it is illegal for someone to turn past them that point. Rotors are not expensive and your brakes are the most important part of your car. I wouldn't skimp on my brakes.

How many miles should jeep Grand Cherokee brake rotors last?
That all depends on how the vehicle is driven, the quality of brakes used, and how soon you replaced the brakes when required. Some people don't have a clue a to the "squeeling" sound they hear from the front brakes and what it means! If you continue to use the brakes after hearing that noise, it won't be long before you're grinding away at the rotors! Overall, the rotors last a long time and can be resurfaced several times. One word of advice: Use a mechanic you know! The large "brake centers" will for certain tell you NEW ROTORS are definitely needed. That's how they make their millions! Only at those "shops" will it cost you $800.00 for a brake job! Stay away from those people and find yourself a good highly recommended mechanic!
What is the reason a vehicle should not be driven through water after a long and hard drive?
The brakes may be hot after a long drive, and the water will cause rapid cooling, possibly warping the brake drums or rotors.
How often do rotors need to be replaced on a Mercedes?
It depends on your driving style and the condition of the calipers. If you ride the brakes or otherwise drive in such a manner as to cause the brakes to overheat, the rotors will warp prematurely. If you are constantly in stop-and-go driving conditions you will wear out the brake pads and rotors much faster than someone who drives greater distances and seldom uses the brakes. I've seen some people who get little more than 20,000 miles from brakes and/or rotors. My last brake pads and rotors had over 70,000 miles when I changed them, but then, we drive long distances here.
