NO!!!!!! That's why I mentioned that "Mom" never had to replace rotors before. She got her driver's license in 45-46'. Owned Gm products her whole life, Chevies, Pontiacs, Oldsmobles and now a Chevy Impala. Now she has slowed down a little but her driving technic hasn't changed ... one foot for both the accelerator and brake. I remember the 63'Pontiac Station Wagon, drove the 70' olds Vista Criuser Station Wagon, the 77'Pontiac Lemans, the 86'Olds Cutlass Coupe, 98'Chevy Impala and none of these cars had their brake rotors replaced before 100k .... so what changed???? Same driver .... new car .....
Then there's my experience ... the crankshaft broke (in two) between the 4th and 5th cylinder of my 86'S-15 4x4 while driving down the road at 40MPH w/ 105K on the odometer. Since when do crankshaft's snap ???? GM's responce .... tough luck, can we sell you a new truck???? It turns out they had sourced the cranks and cams from Mexico or Brazil and the metal quality was poor and the crank was undersized. How do I know this .... I installed a new "crate" motor and the crank was beefed up significately .... Hmmmmmmmm It turns out that GM installed a car motor in the S15 trucks ... I bought/payed for a GMC truck, not a CAR!!!!!!
Now my friends always drove Ford Trucks .... 200k ... no problems ... no waterpumps, no rotors, no motors, ........
So for a trucks, buy a Ford .... for Cars, buy a Honda, Toyota, a Mazda, or a Subaru .....
