i told them that everytime i slow down between 50-40 mph the steering wheel vibrates a lot,,, they took it in and inspected and they told me that the rotors are warped really bad, so they replaced the front rotors, calipers and brake pads, man, they hook my truck up with these thick wall rotors and bigger and heavy duty calipers, they said that there's a TSB for it too.. 05-21-19

glad to hear they got you squared away.... i just changed my rotors and pads... i went with ceramic on all 4.... feels better now i think. the main reason i did it though was to help cure that damn dust !!!! i got tired of washing my wheels.

i changed all 4 of mine with just under 26,000 on them... reason is that i have had bad luck in the past with having them turned... it tends to put them too close to their minimum thickness, and that tends to cause warping. for what is cost to do, i figured it was worth it to hit the "reset" button on the brake system.
