| Description of the problem | After only about 8,000 miles the brake rotors were so warped they needed replacement. The dealership chose only to turn them down removing rotor material to take out the warp. Obviously, the warping returned at 14,000 miles and the dealership claims the rotors are no longer covered by the warranty and wants to charge me for replacement. The factory rotor is absolute junk. The dealership denies that they are having widespread problems with the defective rotors but the internet indicates otherwise. Please force a recall. |
