I had a similar experience this weekend. Took my wife's 2000 wagon in for some warranty issues and an oil change and the dealer mentioned that the break pads were getting pretty thin and would need to be replaced at that time. He also mentioned they would check the rotors to see if they needed to be replaced.
I was SHOCKED! I have owned 5 or 6 Saabs and have never experienced anything like this. I know that driving habits influence mileage on the brakes, but I agree that the idea of replacing rotors with every brake job seems surprising (and very expensive).
