| Description of the problem | I bought a 2006 dodge ram 1500 in 2006. After 27,000 miles the rotors had to be replaced. The truck now has 57,000 miles on it, and i've had to replace the rotors a total of 3 times, and i've had to have the rotors resurfaced once. Each time i have to replace the rotors, the cost is about $260. There is no significant event leading up to the rotors warping. My truck is my general use vehicle. I tow a boat on occasion, which weighs less then 2000 pounds. This truck is rated for far more than that. Last rotor resurfacing took place on 24 apr 09. |
