Suburban LTZ 5.3L V8

  • Automatic transmission
  • 101,000 miles

Every year or so, the rear brake rotors on the vehicle require replacement. If they aren't replaced, the vehicle will vibrate heavily when braking, which is an indication of a warped rotor. Not sure how rotors get warped within a year of being replaced every single time, must be a caliper issue. Don't really want to pay thousands of dollars for new calipers though, would rather just deal with the vibration every year. This is significantly annoying, but NOT a safety issue.
