Should my Civic's brakes be changed under warranty?
The question
I recently purchased a 2012 Honda Civic, the garage gave me 12 months warranty, we're two months in. However, I noticed the brake discs on the two back wheels are heavily scored. I returned to the garage to get them replaced. They said it wasn't necessary and so wouldn't be covered by the warranty. They said there was no danger but will this cause me problems down the line?

Hi Colette,
I'm surprised that such new rear discs are badly scored, but so long as the strength of the discs is not compromised I'd not worry too much. To put your mind at ease perhaps bring the car to another mechanic for a second opinion. Without seeing it for myself I couldn't say definitively.
