Tesla vehicles are a marvel of modern engineering, but they are, nevertheless, still subject to the laws of physics. So when it comes to brake rotors, even though they last much longer on a Tesla, eventually they will need to be replaced. The frequency of Tesla brake rotors replacement will depend on the kind of driving you do – do you brake hard or do you let regenerative braking do most of the work?

If you take your Tesla to the ocean, the humidity in the air can accelerate corrosion as well.
