what are you guys doing for brake rotors. i've yet to see a truck with more than 25k on it where the rotors hadn't started to rust. been doing a lot more of the abs recalls lately on the higher mileage trucks and front and rear rotors all are rusted on inside face and outer face. front and rear. most only have about a 1 1/2 inch stripe down the middle of the face that is actually usable for stopping. it's almost as if the full pad isn't hitting the rotor due to flex in the bracket. gm has a problem here and their replacement rotors aren't any better.
anybody have any recommendations on aftermarket rotors? |
Don't even get me started. GM rotors SUCK. GM refuses to step up to the plate and take care of the issue. I have spent $700+ MY COST for PARTS ALONE twice in the past tw years due to rust. One truck onlu had 15K miles on it. They will only turn the rotors under warranty. So when they could be turned later in life due to new pads, I know have to buy more rotors.
The "customer service" reps refused to help. stated they would not even discuss the matter anymore and finally hung up on me. No wonder they're failing.
