Napa lifetime rotors
I have needed new rotors for a while. Mine were under minimum thickness. I finally got some time yesterday to put the on. I purchased them during the 20% off bucket sale. These are very nice rotors, aesthetically speaking. Unfortunately I can not do a good review of their performance as my old ones were so bad. Any new rotor would have been an improvement.

When I was shopping for rotors online via NAPA website, there were in fact lifetime slotted and non-slotted rotors available. This was about 6 months ago and I have not been back to the site since then. Going there now and searching for Ultra Premium rotors on their site, I don't see them listed.
I went with another brand because I have experience with them and they were on sale with free shipping at the time. My last set of rotors lasted 8 years and they seemed to be OK, but I replaced them anyway to have 100% new in the front. I suspect my new rotors (as well as JT250's) will match or beat that timeframe.

No American Parts Available.
I say that jokingly because any aftermarket stuff I need comes only from there. My nearly lifelong friend owns it.

I wonder if it's a Minnesota thing. It wouldn't be the first time state law has screwed me over. Try searching for the part with your ZIP code and see if it shows lifetime warranty for you please.

As I mentioned briefly earlier, the rotors JT250 bought were on the Ultra Premium lifetime warranty list 6 months ago when I was shopping for rotors.
Perhaps their marketing stance changed recently, I don't know. My selection came down to the NAPA or the StopTech rotors that I went with. I only went with the StopTech due to the deal I got on them with free shipping. If NAPA had their 20% off sale I probably would have selected the NAPA slotted rotors.

Nope says 90 day. If it said that when I bought them I would have gone with the ones that at least had a 2 year warranty. I need to dig out my receipt and see what it says. I would not have paid more for a rotor that had less warranty. A little frustrating to say the least. My BIL has a friend that owns a Napa. I might talk with him about it.

I contacted my Brother in Laws friend who owns a local Napa and asked him about it. He said "Its lifetime". I said "well the website now says 90 days. What's up with that?" (I included a picture) He said "They are idiots. Its lifetime. I promise."

Maybe the website will reflect what you were told and what I saw 6 months ago on the website. When I searched for Ultra Premium lifetime both the slotted (like yours) and smooth rotors came up. I even downloaded the warranty policy paperwork from each listing and they were identical when comparing them word for word.
