Rear brake rotors scored after 14k miles

I noticed that my 04 E320 has severly scored rear brake rotors. Instead of being smooth they have more hills and valleys than the Rockies. Clearly this isn't normal. Is this a known issue and is there a TSB? I am also assuming that this is covered by warranty.

Thanks for your input

Something is wrong for sure. I just had pads replaced at 26,500mi and the rotors were fine. Did you have any unusual work done? Should be under warranty IMHO.

Thanks for your reply

I have noticed that the wear is on all 4 rotors. The only thing that was done is the balancing of the tires twice since new.

I am going to take it in in about a week. We'll see what the dealer says.
