What a rip-off, it is more expensive then some Ferrari model's rotor, in otherwards when the car off warrant, the maintenances will be in the category of super car, for sure I will get rip pf it when it reachs the end of the warrant.

Aren't the brakes covered for the first 2 years under warranty?

That's what I was told. My sales guy told me to make sure I wear them out within the first two years for a free replacement of pads and rotors

Is this warranty on Canadian models only or is this true for USA?

You guy may got the wrong idea about the warrant, the brake rotors and pads are normal wear and tear items for the cost of the owner, same as the use and wear of your tires. The warrant only applied and replace on the manufacture defectives items only.

By the way, just up-dated the cost of the front rotors with the PP, Can $2,344.00, $1,172.00 each, pads (front) Can $382.50, sensor $27.55, sales tax and G.S.T. $358.02 with a total of Can $3,112.07 Plus**** Labour rate $125.50 an hour plus tax. I am for sure it will more than an hour or so the dealer will charge.

WOW! At that price, you should really think about just upgrading to the 380mm 6 pot Brembo setup.... Its an investment, however in the long term your front brake replacements will cost you less then $1000.

Give us a call to get some holiday special pricing.
