One or more front rotors warped--dealer contacted, but claims warped rotor (even at 30K miles) is considered "normal wear and tear" under GM warranty, and thus not covered.

At any speeds in wet or rain condition brake stopping distance is almost doubled from dry road use, vehicle is equipped with factory spoke alloy wheels. On inspection of rotor/caliper area it is evedent that no kind of shield around rotor allows water to get on rotors, possible this particular vehicle is missing shields or this is a design flaw.
