Brake Disc Pads Problems of Jeep Renegade

The front brake rotors on my Jeep are grooved extremely bad. I only have 24,000 miles on it and I never brake hard. I took it in to the dealership and they said that the pads look like new and that there is no outside cause for the grooving and that the rotors would need to be replaced. There is a grinding feel when driving and braking.

Brake pads not worn after 28000 miles but deep grooves in rotors both left and right. Diagnosed by 2 technicians (2 different locations) as defective brake pads.

After a few months of use the brake rotors had deep scoring and were replaced by the dealer. At less than a year the brake rotors and pads scorn again and now the vehicle pulls to one side when the brakes are applied hard.

Took my 2017 Jeep Renegade sport to the dealer for regularly scheduled oil change and tire rotation. They did change the oil and rotate the tires as scheduled. They did notify me that the rotors would need to be replaced before the vehicle could pass inspection. During the conversation the dealer said these vehicles were known for having too hard of a brake pad and the pad grooves the rotors. At the time I was notified of the situation the vehicle had less than 19,000 miles and was in the 11th month of ownership. I have been reading many forums regarding this issue and noticed that the last three model year of Jeep Renegade has been having the same issue. I am very unpleased by the fact that I now need to replace both front rotors, pads, and labor on my dime for a vehicle that I have owned for less than a year.

The rotors wear out but the brake pads are still good it has already wore out 2 sets the brakes grab and stick it jerks you hard right or left. We cant get the company to do anything they act like its our fault. Also it sways really bad in the rear end feels like your riding a old mule hobbity-hoe. Also the transmission has a delay in shift &shifts really hard. The vehicle only has 44,000 miles. We are going to get hurt in this vehicle and can't get any help.
