I have never seen a warranty that would cover tires, brakes or clutches unless a recall is announced. Getting your Camry repaired was prolly the dealer giving great customer service

Agreed, but the Japanese usually won't cover it because when the distributor bills it back to Japan they reject paying it.

You bring up a good point, but its a specific item. Brakes. Very few OEMs will pay for brakes unless its under 6 months old or if the vehicle is a premium unit such as a Cadillac or BMW and is under 12 months old. I have yet to find a manufacturer who can make brakes that don't warp rotors...and I wrenched for a Mazda dealer. I guess you have to buy a Porsche to get good brakes.

It has to be rep approved, but they prolly just cut the rotors and told him they put new rotors on. LOL

Funny thing in, the original brake rotors on my 95 Ford Probe lasted until I got rid of it a few months ago.

I've never had issues with warped rotors on the Mazda MX6 i had before that

:lol:

You drive manuals (I'm guessing) and prolly use engine braking alot.

Mazda brakes warped..in fact when I used to inspect used cars, most OEMs have brake rotor issues.

The rotors don't warp, they corrode and pit. Because of that the surface swells up, and you get pulsing, just like they're warped. The reason your probe brakes didn't do this, is they are made of metal with more chrome in it, and that costs money. So we get cheap cast iron, that rots. And I've noticed that mine pit on the side that the pistons are on, I presume because there's metal in the pads, there's some galvanic action going on as well.

Also lifts, because of your weather, rotors in that part of the country don't do this.

Perhaps things are different in Canada where Toyota is concerned, but I doubt it. My rotors were actually replaced twice on my Camry; once a little over a year after I bought it when they were warped, then more than 2 years after it was purchased when they were both warped and corroded. Corrosion typically isn't covered, but they considered the warping to be the primary issue and their responsibility.

Rotors do warp combined with cheap metal and excessive heat. I had a number of vehicles in CA that the rotors looked new and still warped.
