2002 GMC ENVOY User Comment / Complaint

When having my 02' envoy serviced and state inspection by my gmc dealer the service manager called and told me, i would need to r/r my front rotors. the pads were half worn but the rotors smooth surface did not exist. it looked like they were not machined thoroughly. ser. mgr thought i lived near the shore, stating salt water would usually causes this. i do not live near the shore and do not go the beach. i drive this vehicle to and from work all highway driving. my vehicle has 41225 mi and has always been serviced by gm. i have owned gm vehicles for 38 yrs and the cars with rotors never looked like this. this looks like a manufacturing imperfection. from reviewing the odi list for this vehicle, others have also documented similar complaints. if i did not bring the vehicle in for the state inspection i would never have know this defect existed. this gave me neither warning in braking, stability nor squealing/ticking from early warning system. i should had asked for old rotors or taken a picture. front rotors and pads replaced at my expense.
