My 06 has several grooves worn in each front rotor. Brakes work fine with no pulling or noise. Should I be concered with the scoring? Car has only 6100 miles.

How deep are these "grooves"? Is the metal actually scored or are they smooth ruts? If there's no pull or noise or loss in stopping power, it's probably fine. Also, are the grooves uniform in their appearance on both sides?

If it's a bunch of concentric grooves of equal (shallow) depth that look like the grooves on an LP, that's normal.
If there are individual grooves that are much deeper than that (they will look like circles on the rotors), then either you've worn your pads down to the rivets (not likely without the wear sensors warning you), or something hard has gotten wedged between the pad and the rotor.

They do appear uniform and equal on both front rotors. Performance is good and quiet. Guess it is ok. Thanks guys.
