Had a brake rotor change in February 2022. August 17 they tell me I need new rotors right away. Then I pointed out to them that I got these rotors 6 months ago and the service manager, Brandon More

Sir, Thank you for taking the time to leave a review of your service. As we discussed yesterday, The front brakes are worn out. It is my responsibility to communicate this information to you so you might be able to make an informed decision on repair. We also noticed the front brake rotors are blue with hot spots. This is normally an indication of excessive heat. I cannot answer to your driving habits because everyone’s are different, however it is important to note you have put on 22,000 miles in about 6 months. This is a lot of use in a short amount of time. This can also result in brakes being in abnormal worn from excessive braking conditions. You also have drum brakes in the rear that do not work as hard as disk brakes in the front. This can cause the front brakes to wear much faster than the rear. Unfortunately we are back to I cannot answer why this happened on your vehicle specifically as there are no mechanical issues found. I know you were looking for a reason for why the brakes are worn, and we would not be doing justice to the conversation to ignore the facts listed above. I truly am sorry this information is not what you are looking for, but it is the answer that I have, based on the facts we have to review. As I offered yesterday, I would be glad to review your inspections to show you the digression of the brake pads. This shows the pattern of use from where they were replaced, to where they are now. Regards, Brandon Sauber Chapman Honda Service Manager 520-512-5862

First let me start by stating it is lot a question on pads but the rotor. As I asked yesterday. Typical answer as to look at how you drive or wear, without looking at the whole picture. Funny how other brake shops state this is weird to have such a worn rotor within six months and they even stated”watch: their answer is going to be it is based on how you wear it down”. Amazing how you are not willing to see that your shop might have put a faulty product or not done the job incorrectly or not done the job at all. Since you said it’s based on my wear, I will tell you again nothing has changed in 3 years so why has this all of a sudden become a problem. Let’s see you publicly not acknowledge what I just said and go back to saying it’s based on your wear. Also, Do not mention that typical life of a rotor should last around a minimum of 50k miles. I know you said what ever mechanic agrees with that doesn’t know their job, but I did get answers from other shops that stated that it is very unusual for such an occurrence especially if nothing has changed in driving conditions. At the end, you as a manger have failed to listen to a customer and assumed many different things, like I have some hidden agenda, where all I wanted was a proper job to get done with out my family being put in danger! Apparently thinking to be right is more important then ensuring a job is done correctly for Chapman Honda, but don’t worry I consider this fraud too. R/ John

John, Thanks for following up. The reason for the recommendation of rotors is the main concern, I can answer to that. The rotors have plenty of material remaining, they are not worn, they ae glazed and have hot spots. In resurfacing rotors, we remove thousands of material to remove imperfections. Due to the deep hotspots we would have to take more than normal material off. This makes the rotor thinner resulting in the accumulation faster which warps the rotor. This is where pulsations come in to play. Just to confirm, The rotors have plenty of material as they are right now and are not worn out. There is a possibility the rotors can be resurfaced, we just don’t know how deep the hot spots in the rotor are or how deep we would have to cut to try and resurface the rotor with a good surface. I’d be glad to work with you and start an attempt at resurfacing the rotor, I just can’t guarantee that attempt would be a good result or that you would not have a warped rotor in a short amount of time. Please let me know how I can help. I can be reached directly at 520-512-5862 or emailed directly brandonsauber@chapmantucson.com

They tried to sell me service I had paid for 7,500 miles before, either it wasn’t done or the second visit was a scam. Went to an independent shop for my next oil change and the air filter was filthy, Chapm More

Mr. Carl, I want to extend my sincerest apologies for this experience. Thank you for bringing this to my attention. We are very transparent with every pre-owned vehicle that we sell; we provide reconditioning reports, Carfax history report, the option to take the vehicle to a personal mechanic for inspection and any other information the customer asks for. I’m not familiar with the circumstances of your bumper, but if you’d like to contact me, maybe I can help. Respectfully Luis B.
