Default Replacing warped rotors under warranty?

Let me start by saying, I can replace the rotors on these trucks in 15 minutes a side.
That being said, while I had 800 lbs in the back, I went from 65 mph to 0.. in 3 car lengths on the highway. So of course, now my rotors pulsate like a son of a b!tch.
I'm not cutting these tiny rotors, so would the warranty cover them? Or should I just go throw some new ones on?

Had mine replaced under warranty but that was due to caliper issue.

If your still under your 3 yr 36k and low miles you can always try it.

The dealer will want to just turn them for you. Been there done that.

I called on mine, warped after 8K miles, cause of my 24's. They said not covered under warranty. I just bought slotted/drilled and EBC pads, $300 and my truck stops on a dime, and after 42K still not warped. One of the best upgrades I've done.

Been through this. Its not covered under warranty (wear item). However, they will cut them one time; for what they told me is a one time "courtesy".

i think ford pads arent that great at all. Better replace with aftermarket ones.

It is wear item so you have no chance. Which lucky for ford!

I should have said, I only have 14,000 miles in 15 months.
If all they're gonna do is cut them..forget it. I'll suck it up and put better ones on myself.
Thanks guys.
