Default Cracked rear right rotor

So I'm admiring my new car today when I notice a crack in my rear right rotor. Now this isn't the hairline baby cracks that everyone seems to be getting, but a big crack, lol. Will the dealership cover this? The car only has 5k miles. Is it safe to drive? It's not making any unusual noises and braking has not been affected.

It's safe, I had to drive mine for a week like that, but my rotor had a lot more than 5k miles on it!!!!! Just make it so you don't have to brake hard. Did you go racing and leave AH on? I should think the stealer will replace it.

Well, I haven't did any racing but I have had a few highway runs where I had to brake kinda hard but active handling never engaged. Other than that, I baby the car. I hope the stealership doesn't give me any problems. :)

I had a big crack in the front driver's side rotor, and the dealer replaced it. I think I had 30,000 miles on at the time. They weren't the original rotors, but I got them 6 months earlier at the same dealership so they covered it.

Good luck.
