usually a lazy piston that does not retract properly.

That probably would have been a good idea in this case.

Busted! gotta get my brakes checked pronto.

Turns out the burning smell in the cabin was from driving around with a jack stand wedged under the car. Gonna look at that next.

I think these rotors have your name on them.
I'm sure your next of kin can get a refund if they don't work out.
Just like shopping for doctors and dentists, you should always go with the low bidder.


These Rotors are brand name OP Parts and are manufactured in China. We have been providing these rotors for quite some time now and have always received great feedback. On some forums they are described as low quality....

FYI guys, "warped rotors" don't exist. You have pad compound deposits that were unevenly distributed on your rotors. The good news is there is an easy fix. This is one automotive myth I wish would go away sooner than later. I am surprised some of the track nuts here didn't jump on this topic sooner.
