Then why did the Dealer say your brakes were pitted from rust and need  
replacement? If thats not the case you should inform the dealerships 
management of your grivence. Or better yet AOA!.... 
 
If yours are pitted or glazed then a slight resurface job could be
warranted. 
 
Don't get them "turned" cause often then not, too much material 
is removed.

  Mike, 
  Reread my excerpt of your original post very carefully, then read my
reply only carefully.  I still maintain that I would not, nor would too
many others I can think of,  care to have that particular part even
"slightly" resurfaced. (I could check with my girlfriend as she may have a
vested interest)  
   I do concur that "turning" is very unacceptable as well, I can't afford
to have 'too much'  material removed.  I want kids someday! 
If I'm not ringing any bells yet, please ask Bob D or Unka Bart for their
feelings on the subject! 
Mike
