my 2016 has had warped rotors since about 15k miles, and now I am at 25k miles. I just called my dealer today to have them looked at and hopefully replaced. Have you guys had any luck with warranty on warped rotors? I know I can get cross drilled ones, but I am delaying that for a while because I am selling and buying a house right now, and I just want to not have to work on the truck for now.

Ideas? Stories? suggestions?

Thanks.

I doubt with that mileage they will warranty the brakes.

They might turn them for you as customer courtesy but i think rotors are considered a "wear" item.

Depends how kind your dealership is.

EDIT: There are much better aftermarket rotors available, I would suggest aftermarket over OEM if you end up having to pay

I would be happy if they turn them- I drive 70 miles + a day, and on the highway the truck shakes pretty violently. If I have to replace them, I'll do it myself, and buy better ones.

They aren't warped. Go out and do a few HARD stops.

It will go away for awhile.

They shake worse if I nail the brakes hard- if they are not warped what is it? Glazing?

Yeah, mine did this from 2,500 miles, until 12.5k miles. The dealership turned the rotors and scuffed the pads. At 16k miles, it started again. I tried doing the hard stop thing to clean the rotors off, and it works for a short while, then they start up again.

I have the Ford maintenance package - has anyone used it for brakes? How many times will they turn or replace rotors during the first 100k/6yr period?

Yes.

it'll shake like a bitch. After a few HARD stops it goes away.

Warped rotors is a feeling, not actually a deformation.
