Brake warping problems. Need regional contact info.

For the past couple months I've been having an issue where the front rotors keep warping after 1,000 miles or so. The dealer at first had me replace the front control arm bushings. Then it happened again and they had me change the hubs. I'm convinced it's a caliper hanging up on the front driver's side. The "mechanic" says they see no sign of that as there are no burn spots on the rotor. As my car will be for sale soon, or now, I want to get it in perfect shape. So far it's been ok but I want to be prepared if it happens again. Can someone please give me the contact info for Mini regional in the NY-CT area? If it happens again I refuse to put another dime into this issue. I have an extended maintenance plan but the warranty is gone. I had no issue with this for the life of the car until they did a brake job some months back.

Thank you!

Best,
Gene
