| Description of the problem | After less than a year and less than 18k miles, i was told i needed new brake rotors because mine were warped. The dealer claimed that getting them too hot will cause them to warp. I have been driving many years and have never needed brake rotors replaced, especially after 18k miles, nor have i altered my driving style. My last vehicle went over 100k miles without even needing brake pads. I believe that there is a problem with the the brakes, not the way i drive. |
