Brake Disc Rotor problem #1

- had brakes on 2003 Dodge Sprinter checked by local mechanic. Said that there was about 40% brake pad left but the rotors where extremely worn. I am wondering if rotor life goes past the brake life and could be a danger. Dealer said rotors are changed everytime with pad change!.
