Vitara metallic pad rotor damage

Post by KenFry » Wed Aug 12, 2020 4:31 am

Greetings,

My boss owns a 2017 Vitara and I noticed rotor damage. The Ho Chi Minh City Suzuki dealer said that it is normal. Please review the picture and tell me this is not normal. Thank you.

Looks like standard brake disc wear. Just very mild, normal, scoring off the pads.

Thank you, sacrificing the rotors is new to me. I'm from the old school of the rotors should be a smooth as possible.

Nice ride!
