Air Brake Disc Rotor problem

I have had to have the front brakes (due to TSB) repaired three times now. I bought the car with 4k miles and the brakes squeaked, the dealership repaired them and within 1 week they began to squeak again so I took it back and they cleaned & adjusted them. They started squeaking again I took to a different dealership and they replaced the rotors and pads again due to the backplate and pad was soaked with oil.
