Any idea what mileage the rotors are covered up to?

Any idea what mileage the rotors are covered up to?
If at all? what are your experiences?
I've had mine replaced twice now, and I'm HIGHLY considering getting in on the groupbuy for the rotora's.
The first time, they were total fucking morons about replacing my rotors. Claiming that it was a wear and tear part, however another dealership told me that it was covered, so I took that letter to the dealership by me, and they finally gave in.
Bastards just wanted to make a buck.
So what's the deal with this? Do any of you know?

why aren't they turning the rotors atleast once? They shouldn't just be replacing them right away.

My dealership replaced more rotors and not pads 6 months ago. Do you think if I went back there would be any chance of them doing the pads for me as well?

The reason Acura gives for the warping rotors is the brake pads having too much metal in the pad, which causes excessive heat, which warps the rotors. The TSB states the new improved (less metal in the pad) pads are to be replaced with the rotors. Your dealer owes you a set of brake pads.

Aww the brake game. I just had mine replaced with 45k miles on the odo.
First time was in the N. Ca with 20k miles. They resurfaced and replaced w/ updated pads. 40k miles and now living in central Ca warped again, the dealership here said no way under warranty TSB had already been performed. So While my car was in for a new power steering res. I was looking around on the lot. Sales guy approached and started with the usual speel. I told him my wife wanted a MDX by the end of the month ( a lie) but we would not buy it at his dealership. I went on to explain how they wouldn't fix my first Acura that is still under warranty so $600 in your service dept. is costing you 30k in sales. I got a phone call asking me to meet with the sales manager and service manager. Went in and explained my concerns. They tried to pull the "wear and tear" shit. I told them wear and tear is fine but the rotors should outlast the pads and this is not happening. End result was NEW rotors and pads (I volunteered to pay for pads) installed and a better level of customer service.
