This happens a lot, to men and women. The garage says the brakes are worn and once they get it apart they say that you need new rotors. You have to be careful to ask, if it will pass inspection without new rotors.

They will usually back down and say that they "recommend" new rotors or that the pads are not warranteed if you don't get them. In the old day they would resurface the rotors, now they don't want to be bothered. It's better for them to sell you new ones.
