Rotors have to be repaced becaue they are too rusty?
This should be a tip off to you that they are flat out lying to you! Rotors are cast iron and there is no way to prevent them from rusting. The braking surface itself wiil rust after a rain storm and are wiped clean again when the brakes are applied. A dealer is the worst possible place to get brakes as they will brutally rape you for them. Brake jobs are a big money maker and just about every repair shop does brake jobs. Example: I recenly had new brakes all around installed on my Celica. The dealer wated $650 The small, privately owned repair shop near me wanted $225 for the same exact thing. So, shop around for a good price after making shure they acually need replacing as milage is not a good indicator of brake wear.
