Re: How long do rotors last?
Welcome Jeep forums.
There are a number of factors that affect rotor life so you shouldn't get to heavy on the dealer.
The fact that they have been turned is a strike against them staying straight in the first place.
There simply is not enough metal even in new rotors to allow them to keep their strength after turning - especially the composite rotors(steel centers and cast wear rings).
What condition are the caliper slides in? Were the wheel nuts torqued evenly and correctly at every wheel removal? Both of these can affect the warping of rotors.
I guess I am not being as encouraging as you may have hoped but Jeep is not the only make that has problems in this area. It does not help when shops recommend or proceed with repairs that will not last.
If it was this dealer that turned the rotors at 13K and it was not explained to you what turning might do to the rotors then that may be your best hope at this time.
All this is aside, other causes may be contributing to the situation as well.
