Default Dealer tells me the front rotors are warped at 12k miles

Brakes have been making a slight droaning noise, take it to dealer and evidently they are warped. Advisor says it’s likely on my dime since the car, a 2019, is out of the initial 12 month 12k mile. How is this acceptable? I have an M5, and BMW swapped out the rotors for free Due to a slight squeaking OUT of warranty. Hope Audi steps up to the plate or I’ll never buy another and go buy my 11th BMW. Advice?

I complained about the brakes being squeaky on my 2016 GT-R and Nissan replaced them all for free on a 3 year old car. Probably cost them $8K in parts and labor. You should at least get a discount on new brakes from Audi.

Audi replaced all rotors and pads on my 3 yrs old, around 35K miles Q5, but there was a TSB on the squeaking breaks. They needed to do pads only but they did everything all around.

I had an A7 loaner a couple weeks ago and your use of the term "moaning" is just what that car was doing. Brake rotors should not warp in 12K miles
