Are brake rotors covered under a warranty from Honda?

I was driving my new Honda Civic EX the other day when I noticed a bit of a rumbling and vibration when I applied the brakes. I took it to a repair shop and they told me that the rotors were cracked. I’ve only driven the car about 10,000 miles. Are brake rotors covered under the Honda warranty?

Unfortunately, the
Honda
warranty probably won’t cover cracked or warped brake rotors. Honda would consider this problem wear and tear and not the result of a factory defect, so you’d have to pay out of pocket.
However, if you signed up for Honda Care Maintenance, Honda may cover the repair. To see if you’re covered, call the Honda Customer Care Hotline at 1-800-999-1009.
