| Description of the problem | I have a 2006 nissan frontier pickup id # [xxx] . I had to replace the front rotors at 20,000 miles and now at 40,000 miles i am having to replace both front and rear rotors. I am 60 years old and have not changed my driving style. These brakes seem to be wearing out at about three times the rate of the brakes of any previous vehicle that i have known. This seems to be a design defect.
