Brake rotors

Does anybody have excessive problems with their rotors that came from the factory?

Yes. Everyone does. They rust easy and don't hold up. Almost as bad as the window motors. Mine are rusted like h**l and I live in Florida. My car has only been near the beach twice and never seen snow.

Hopefully when you had the front allignment done they checked the integrity first. Take it back and have em look at it for free.You could need new tie rods, bushings, etc. Too many things up there. I'd have it looked at for defects. Best hope is that you got a lifetime allignment job. Might want to take elsewhere if they won;t stand behind their work and look at it. Anyways, none of these parts are expensive. But if you replace them an allignment must be redone.
