Replacing front brake pads and rotors really isn't too hard to do. If you do it yourself, make sure to get lifetime parts so you never have to pay for them again.

To get you started, here is a link that shows in general how it is done. You can use it as a guide.

If you look at the pics below, they include the directions and pictures specific to your vehicle for this job.

Also, here is a video of the procedure being done on a Ford Taurus. Although it is a different model, the procedure is very similar.
