Rotors warp with differential cooling. You need to cool them down before you park. I learned that with an Explorer (auto transmission) on the Grapevine. We stopped at a rest area 3/4 the way down. The rotors were hot and when we stopped, the brake pads prevented proper cooling. Had to pull into a brake shop in Bakersfield to get them turned.
