F-Sport brake question
I bought a used 2014 F-sport and I took it to the dealer since the brakes are making the screech noise on low speed cold stops. The dealership stated that the brakes and rotors are all aftermarket and won't touch them.
My question (from searching and reading) is, does anyone make aftermarket rotors for the F-Sport RWD?

I took it to Lexus of Sacramento (CA).
WOW, dealer told you that, that is one stupid dealer, tell them to take it of and compare the OEM stamping on the rotor to the ones they have on the shelf, and have them order aftermarket ones if they find one, and I will guarantee you they will never find it, No manufacture makes it, because its a 2 pc rotor and cost too much to make it.Tell that smart service guy if it matches to your OEM parts on the shelf you gonna do the brake job under warranty for free or else corporate will hear about it and also there was a TSB on it. Don't let them get away with that call corporate.

Some dealers only want to sell u the car, they don't want to deal with repairs ever, especially warranty stuff unless u show them a truck full of money.
U have to find a dealer with a good after sales support. I'm lucky to have a dealer nearby (Lexus of Woodland Hills) that has a good after sales service and don't mind checking/fixing stuff that's under warranty for free while giving me a loaner anytime.
I've had my share of bad lucks with Toyota dealers not wanting to fix my Camry even when it was still under the new vehicle warranty. U have to go to a different dealer until u find one that is genuinely customer friendly, don't keep coming back to the same dealer that refused u the first time. Move on and destroy their rep in the reviews, that will get corporate's attention.

So the dealer has admitted that they were wrong about their being aftermarket rotors on the vehicle. So they are going to turn the rotors with the on-the-car rake lethe and put new pads and shims in. Hope this helps. Thanks for everyone's feedback on this. I almost spent the 500 for the rotors just to do it my self.
