RIPPLES IN ROTORS

RIPPLES IN ROTORS
I have less than 4000 mi on my hoe & I have ripples on all 4 of my rotors, some worse than others. Has anyone else had this experience. I plan on taking it back to the dealer & telling them I want new brakes & rotors.

Is this something that you feel when braking (warped rotors)?
Or something that you see when looking at the rotors? In which case; how about a good photo of the rotor?

RE: RIPPLES IN ROTORS
I'm withZX - can you post photo?
I've seen heat cracks that at first look like ripples but notat4k miles. If rotors are truly warped you'd feel it whenbreaking, especially from higher speeds and a short distance in which to stop.

You can see the ripplesand feel them. Something I usually wouldn't seeuntil I need a brake job & my rotors turned. I'll see if I can get some pics

I think you are referring to grooves or "scoring". If that is the case,most of the time its caused by prolonged pad contact. Try shortening your braking distances, you'll get on the brakes harder, but you minimize the wear.
