Re: Warped Rotor Not Covered Under Warranty?
I would put my money on abuse. Brakes not properly broken in. The same old
"stomp on the gas to get to that red light 1 block ahead, then slam on the
brakes". 90% of the people on the road go flying by me when there is a red
light only a block ahead, they just can't see past the 50 feet in front of
them, or they focus on the bumper in front of them. The dealer can easily
tell by how much wear is on the pads/roters.
