| Description of the problem | 2003, dodge, ram 1500, hemi, 20" wheels, warped rotors. Rotors replaced at 7000 miles. Warped rotors reduces stopping power and therefore increases stopping distance. I believe this is an issue that really needs to be addressed because it can lead to accidents as a result of stopping distance . *ak |
