Siezing caliper or calipers will cause warping to your rotors, the caliper may not be full on siezing but just enough to heat up and warp those nice new rotors you just put on. You should notice when you push the piston back up into the caliper if its really hard to do. I had a caliper sieze at approx 150,000km on my 2001. I only noticed after going to the car wash and when I sprayed the one wheel it made a huge steam bath in the car wash! Where as the other wheel was fine. Explained my rotor warping after only 2000 kms. Not sure if its possible but if its warped enough it may even throw off the wheel bearing sensor!?? and give you the 3 wonderful dash lights?! not positive on this but seems possible.
