2008 FORD F250 - RIGHT ROTOR ONLY DISINTEGRATING CAUSING MAJOR DAMAGE TO THE CALIPER AND RUBBER BOOT. HAD TRUCK TO DEALERSHIP TWICE AND THEY COULD FIND NOTHING WRONG WITH THE TRUCK, NOW DEALERSHIP IS SAYING THAT IT IS LACK OF MAINTENANCE ON MY PART. I SERIOUSLY BELIEVE THAT THIS IS A DEFECTIVE PART. BRAKE ON RIGHT HAND SIDE IS COMPLETELY GONE. I THINK IF THE DEALERSHIP WOULD HAVE CHECK THIS OUT BETTER THEY WOULD HAVE FOUND THE PROBLEM WHILE THE TRUCK WAS UNDER WARRANTY. *TR
