The consumer stated that the rotators were bad, pictures were taken and there was unusual flaking. The rotors were worn smooth and not pitted. There was excessive noise coming from the brakes. All of the rotors were replaced due to the pitting being so severe that it could not be used. The dealer said he had seen this before.

The vehicle had been to the dealer for noise in the drive train and 4 wheel drive unit which was eventually blamed on aggressive tire tread.
