well thanks for the feedback. so after a major fiasco with the truck getting towed to wrong dealership who tried to screw me (no one in jersey should ever ever even send their worst enemy to freehold chrysler/jeep) and getting truck down to my friends at freehold dodge they are replacing the caliper under waranty and we made a deal on the pads/rotor. the brakes were pretty worn down anyway so i cant blame them on that and i knew they were really only covered under the 12/12.

Hope you made a good deal on pads,rotor. The ROTOR should be covered.Its a 3/36 if damage is not from NORMAL wear.Pads are questionable at your mileage.The point being that the caliper caused the damage and if the way of doings haven't changed a lot in the last few years the service manager approved replacing the damaged items.Any way you really ought to pay at worst for pads.Work it best you can.
