why would a new rotor crack?

Asked by GuruXGMV6 Dec 01, 2018 at 11:42 AM about the 2002 Chevrolet Tahoe LT RWD

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

Just had new rear brakes and rotors on a 2002 Tahoe and three days later the
left rear rotor cracked. Tons of noise at the time. I'd love to have some
education on how that may happen. Thanks

If it's new you may still have a manufacturer's warranty on the part. If a shop installed it they may also have some sort of warranty on the work.

Sometimes cheap Chinese parts fail. What brand were the rotors?
