Less than 1,000 miles and rotors scored

There were concentric circles of scoring. I know what I am talking about. It's not dust or anything else. You could see and feel it with your finger when you run it across the surface. There were noticeable cuts into the rotor that I could feel and see. That is what scoring means. Must have been there when I bought the car from the dealer new, it had 150 miles on it when I took delivery and I noticed the issue almost immediately the first week I drove it. Vibration on steep hills and slowing from highway speeds. I am in my 50's and have had many cars. Many break ins I know how to break in a new car. There is no reason for this car to have new rotors scored like this based on anything I did as a driver. I have never had a new car have this kind of problem. This was not normal. Don't know what caused it but it was nothing I did. Very easy driving and easy on the brakes. I don't know what happened but the dealer quickly agreed and replaced the rotors with new ones.
Did you by chance ask for the damaged rotors back?
I'd be willing to pay for these to be shipped to me just to stop all the speculation and get to truth about the debate of scored vs. added material.
