Dodge Durango Brakes Specifications
Durango brakes scale dramatically by trim — from standard 4-wheel disc on GT models all the way up to massive Brembo 6-piston brakes on the SRT Hellcat. Three-row SUV weight plus performance trim braking demands regular inspection and service from Mopar-certified technicians.
| Trim | Front Brakes | Rear Brakes | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Durango GT | 13.8-inch vented disc | 12.6-inch vented disc | Standard Durango brake package |
| Durango GT Plus / Premium (HEMI) | 13.8-inch vented disc with upgraded calipers | 13.0-inch vented disc | Larger brakes to match V8 power and towing capability |
| Durango SRT Hellcat / Jailbreak | 15.75-inch Brembo 6-piston | 13.78-inch Brembo 4-piston | High-performance Brembo brake package designed for track use |

Brake Care Tips for Your Dodge Durango
- Hellcat owners: dedicated track use requires DOT 4 brake fluid and frequent pad inspections.
- Towing with the HEMI Durango (up to 8,700 lbs) stresses brakes significantly — inspect after every tow trip.
- Brembo Hellcat pads require OEM-spec replacements only.
- Listen for grinding, vibration, or extended pedal travel — these signal urgent service needs.
- Brake fluid should be flushed every 2-3 years depending on use (more often for SRT/Hellcat).
