How do you know if you have warped rotors?
I see a lot of people complaining about this....so how do I determine if I really have warped rotors or not.

if you feel your steering wheel shake back and forth when braking is generally the symptom of warped rotors... usually happens when braking hard at highway speeds if the rotors aren't warped too bad...

Unhappy
HOWEVER, AS FAR AS THE BRAKES ARE CONCERNED THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THE HARD BRAKE PADS. THE DEALERS WILL (IF YOUR CAR IS THE YEAR ETC) WILL PUT ON NEW PADS AND MACHINE THE ROTORS AT NO COST.
