I have a 2005 Silverado with about 31000 miles on it. Recently, I have noticed the front end will shake when braking and had the local shop check the brakes while rotating the tires. They said the rotors are warped and there is not enough tolerance left to machine them.
I know brake pads are not covered under warranty, but has anyone had any luck getting the dealer to replace rotors under warranty. I have had several chevy trucks and none have needed brake pads, much less rotors, this early on. It seems like a defect to me. I just do normal city driving and occasionally pull an atv.
Most quotes from brake shops are around $275-$375 for new front rotors and pads. Does this seem reasonable?
Could there be any other brake problems that would lead to the rotors wearing so quickly?
