Just bought a set of front brake rotors and pads for my Saab, will see their warranty in 50K later... Do I have to wear the pads down to the metal?

I am running a set of Sebro slotted rotors in the front from them. They are still going strong, but I was wondering the same thing, when do they consider them to be done so I can send them back and get the next free set

I've sent parts back that outwardly looked fine.

Something as simple as claiming they are warped is likely good enough.

I'm not sure they care, strange as it is.

I just replaced the pads on all four wheels (along with rotors) about 4 months ago and used Akebono pads. Very happy with them, no noise, very little dust and stop great.
