I have 21k miles on my 2019 Subaru Ascent. So far, I have had to replace the rotors TWICE. I feel this is a design flaw and I can’t continue to replace rotors for the remainder of the life of the vehicle. Subaru needs to acknowledge that there is an inherent design flaw with this model vehicle (loaner Ascent vehicles that I have had also have this problem). Since Subaru has not acknowledged this issue, I feel like taking my losses for the past year and getting a completely different vehicle (which will not be a Subaru!) Please keep in mind the rotors and pads were completely replaced at 9k miles. I am now at 21k with severe vibration and do not feel my car is safe to drive. The rotors are warping due to excessive heat and need to be completely recalled and redesigned.
Why would you make such an unsupported, unsubstantiated claim? At what time frame did you have yours replaced, and what steps did the dealership use to install the replacements?
At 21K, I had my rotors turned, and the pads re-installed per the new method, and they have been fine for the last 23,000 more miles (I am about to break 45,000 miles).
The stock rotors stopped this big beast behind my Ascent when I forgot to plug in the brake controller.
