New brake rotors

[Bigmike40]

Had my front rotors replaced yesterday, they car was shaking when I applied the brakes. The same thing happened to my Nissan Maxima. The dealership replaced them under warranty. I will probably upgrade to better rotors if the problem returns later.

How many miles are on the car? Have the rotors been turned before?

Don't assume that aftermarket rotors use the same quality grade of cast iron [softness vs hardness] as oem rotors. Infact don't assume many aftermarket product even meet oem standards.

They probably got you Jobber Rotors. They tend to be out of round and warpped 95% of the time. If they run out of OE on stock they will OEM Jobber class rotors. It may have also been stacked too high on the shelves to make them uneven. Have them replace with new and don't get them to turn them. You paid for new and quality not to just have them shaved. Asked them for the brand of rotors they got for you and the invoice from stock department.

Check your torque on the lugs, maybe your tires has a flat spot or a bubble.

Surely a dealer will at least use Nissan?

Considering my local Infiniti dealer doesnt even stock the shim kits.....who knows what would happen if you dropped your car off there for a brake job????

I had issues even with OE Rtors warpping. I tried to source out Brembo Blanks and to no avail from Brembo. So I called my Rep. from 1 of our suppliers, she recommended Stop Tech Drille/ Slotted Rotors. I have them on for a little over a year now and no issues warpping, still has non directional lines and looks brand new. All issues on noise and warpping gone.

I hope the Spell Check Police don't catch me. LOL

Funny that Stillen is running a killer deal right now on them. They are drilled and plated. I swear by mine on the G50. Regular Brembos on the FGY33, which should be the same as F50, I believe.

Strangely, TireRack only had the BBK and only for the front.
