Default new guy w/03 malibu brake ??

Hey guys & gals! As stated above I'm new to this forum. I've got an 85 Monte Carlo (thats my baby) and a 93 Malibu.The Monte's been in the garage for the last 5 years, but she'll be on the road as soon as I get done remodin the house. Any way the Malibu's been giving me some brake problems lately.Grinding, pulsating. I pulled all the wheels and everything looks good. The guy at NAPA says they have "cronick" rotor problems anybody else have "cronick" rotor problems with these cars? Thoughts and suggestion appreciated.

So to be clear it's a 03 Malibu???
Could very well be the rotors are warped or your ABS is engaging.

Sorry about the typo. Yes it's an 03 Malibu. Today I changed the rotors and pads and everythings just fine now. Just have to wait and see how long these ones last before I can say there is a problem with the front end.
