27thousand on the ticker and rotors have grooves in em,.....FML

Is this a new rotor thing? we have a 2010 ranger that has a similar issue

My 7.3 had 90 thousand miles before I had any rotor issues

110k miles on my 08. Original pads and rotors all four corners.

Have you serviced the brakes? The pads like to seize in the caliper brackets.

sounds like a driving style "thing" lol

Groves are from debris in the pads and rotors...

my dads 09 6.4 has 120,000 miles on it. original rotors and original front pads. back pads were replaced at 100,000 miles. Does your truck do any sitting?

I just traded my '08 6.4 with 119,000 on them they were a little grooved and pulsed a bit if you really payed attention but thats to be expected with driving like an ahole.... maybe '11 are a tad different....don't think so tho

Is this the truck in your avatar you're talking about? The grooves might be from the rivets on the plates where your pads used to be!!!

LOL no not the same truck, Yeah this thing only has 27 thousand miles......never had a issue with my 7.3
I baby this thing....factory 18" wheels too! not the 20's

took the wheels off this weekend,....the pads are worn in a curved shape like the out side of the pads are squeezing in or cupping?....anybody had this I see there is a stiction issue though huh
