You may have a condition that is heating up your rotors. Excessive heat will warp any rotor. Usually this excess heat comes from the caliper not fully releasing when you take your foot off the brake pedal. Usually it’s cause is a sticking caliper or an internally damage brake hose. To check for this,secure the front wheels off the ground. Have someone press the brake pedal. When the brake. Pedal is released, you should be able to turn both wheels freely without any brake interference. If you have brake interference, one of these problems are present.
