2018 Chevrolet Malibu Brake Warranty

Warranty coverage for brake components varies by manufacturer and by the specific warranty applied to your 2018 Chevrolet Malibu. Typically, wear-and-tear items such as brake pads and rotors are not covered under the standard new-vehicle limited warranty, since they are designed to be replaced during normal maintenance. That said, some vehicles may have extended coverage, accessory warranties, or goodwill considerations that can apply to certain brake components. Importantly, any repairs or replacements that are covered under warranty must be performed at a certified franchise dealership to preserve the warranty. Performing warranty repairs at an independent shop can risk denial of claims and may lead to out-of-pocket costs. At Coggin Chevrolet at the Avenues we document all work thoroughly, use OEM parts, and follow factory procedures so warranty claims are handled smoothly. Our factory-trained technicians can inspect your 2018 Chevrolet Malibu, verify coverage eligibility, and complete any necessary warranty paperwork. For peace of mind and to protect your long-term ownership value, bring warranty-related brake concerns to our service department, and review our Service Specials for potential savings on non-warranty repairs.

2018 Chevrolet Malibu Brake Replacement

Replacing brakes on your 2018 Chevrolet Malibu is a precise task best handled by technicians trained in factory procedures. Brake pad replacement on one axle commonly takes about one to one-and-a-half hours, while replacing rotors with pads can take two to three hours per axle depending on rotor condition, rust, and whether additional machining or hardware replacement is required. At Coggin Chevrolet at the Avenues, our advantage is experience and equipment: OEM tools, calibrated torque settings, and access to original parts let us complete jobs faster and with greater consistency than many independent shops. Faster service does not mean rushed work—each job includes inspection, cleaning, proper bedding procedures when necessary, and a test drive to confirm pedal feel and stopping performance. We also provide clear, itemized estimates and explain the benefits of replacing pads and rotors together when needed, which reduces rework and saves money over time. When time is essential, schedule service through our website or Service Specials page; many customers leave the same day with a safe, fully tested brake system, backed by dealership documentation and access to warranty support if applicable.

2018 Chevrolet Malibu Brake Pads and Rotors

Replacing both brake pads and rotors at the same time on a 2018 Chevrolet Malibu offers significant benefits over fitting new pads onto worn rotors. New pads against uneven or thinned rotors can lead to premature wear, vibration, noise, and compromised stopping power. By inspecting both components together, our technicians ensure ideal surface contact, consistent pad bedding, and even wear progression—yielding smoother braking, improved feel, and longer service life for both pads and rotors. At Coggin Chevrolet at the Avenues we measure rotor thickness, check for runout and heat damage, and recommend resurfacing only when within safe tolerance. When replacement is necessary, we use OEM parts and proper installation sequences to maintain the braking system's intended design and performance. Performing pads and rotors together often reduces total labor costs and eliminates the need for a return visit, producing immediate savings and minimizing disruption.
