1999 4x2 RegularCab with a 3.9l_V6 engine, built in the Warren,MI plant; sequence number unknown1
MileageProblem
7000 At 7,000 miles I had the brake rotors machined.
14000 At 14,000 miles the rotors were warped again. The dealer this time replaced the rotors for free, but had no answer as to why this was happening.
17000 I have been very careful in applying my brakes since the first time they were machined. I am now at 17,000 miles, and it seems like the problem is starting to return.
