I have had my rear rotors replaced this year due to pitting and warping. Last year, they did the front set. At $330 a pop, I am hoping this will not become a trend. Any one else have a similar issue?

Nope, sorry. 61K miles on my 03 on the original brakes. I did replace the rear pads last year, but that was it.

I had to replace my pads at like 56 or 57k, but I haven't had to replace the rotors yet *knock on wood*.

Learn to replace them yourself if something about the way you drive or where you drive makes them short lived. It is easy and $330 is a rip off. Parts should be well under $100 and you should be able to replace 2 in just over an hour plus have a couple of beers while you are doing it.

I just had my front rotors resurfaced due to warping, but the rears? It takes me under 30min to get the rear tire off, caliper off, rotor off, and adjust the parking brake and get it all back together. But I do have an awsome floor jack so that takes alot of time away.

WOW,I've never warped a rotor in my life till I got stationed in southern cali,then I was replacing rotors every 6 months(drove my car like it was a Ferrari).It really depends on how drive as far as brake rotor life/pad life goes,alot of stop and go driving will shorten brake life too as will alot of high speed braking and not letting the rotor cool.$330 a pop for brakes seems a little steep unless you have brembo brakes,heck I just put on powerslot rotors and hawk pads and it only cost me $200 for the whole front.I'm glad I have drum rear brakes,I can redo the whole set up for less than $50(new shoes,springs,and cylinders).

Hard to warp the rear. You can do it if you use them hard and get them hot and then come to a stop and immediately set the parking brake...that can sometimes cause them to warp.
