I have had that problem on many cars or trucks. Warped rotors can be
caused by improperly tightened wheels (especially mags). It is not a
good idea to install lug nuts with a impact wrench but many people do it
anyway. The proper way is to use a torque wrench set to veichle specs
and tighten lugs in a proper sequence. Use of a impact sure can warp
rotors on any veichle.
