| Description of the problem | I have an 03 dodge ram 1500. The rotors have warped 4 different times. At 3,000; 8,000; 13,000 and 22,000. Dealer will only turn them down and has not replaced them. From all of my research this is constantly occurring on all 1500 ram trucks with factory 20" wheels. Dodge did not upgrade anything to compliment the larger wheels. The only cure has been for owners to replace them with after market rotors at their own expense. |
