Beware of premature failure of Porsche PCCB ceramic brakes

Warm-Up Lap
My PCCB ceramic brake rotors burned out prematurely at 12,000 miles on my new Porsche 911. The repair cost me $10,000 because Porsche refused to honor their warranty. Has anyone else had to replace their PCCB rotors?

For those of you looking for more details, I have described my experience at length in a blog post at http://jimmy348.blogspot.com/.
 
track or normal street use ?

I didn't bother with the PCCB. I don't track (Till now)

The details are in my blog, but it was 90+% street use. Read the disclaimer in their sales literature.

Warranty is voided if your vehicle enters track use - "Extreme Use"
You don't need to track your car for them to refuse warranty service. Also, read my blog if you're interested in the details.
