Default 2023 brakes

Aloha

my wife purchased a 2023 discovery sport a few weeks back. I drove it the other day and there is a very distinct vibration when braking-moderate to heavy. I took to dealership and they can’t replicate it. They said the rotors and pads look fine. The car only has 200 miles on it. The feeling I get through the pedal is similar to how warped rotors are. Anyone experience this issue before?

No to the distinct vibration but I look forward to upgrading the brakes in my 2020 Land Rover Discovery. They are lacking, IMHO.

With a new vehicle you need to get the tech to ride with you while you drive and show them the issue. You shouldn't have to troubleshoot it yourself.
If you wanted to, you could jack it up and rotate each wheel by hand and see if you can feel the rotor having uneven friction. Checking for warped rotors is easy with a micrometer mounted on a magnetic mount but you likely don't have that - but the dealer should - it would be called checking for runout.
If you do jack it yourself you'll probably need it in neutral and have both front wheels in the air at the same time, and both rears at same time.
Also, not to blow you off, but this is the Discovery forum not the Discovery Sport forum. If your issue is related to a Sport you might find someone else with that issue on the Sport forum.
I have driven many Sports for lots of miles and did not feel any issue with the brakes. You should be able to get your issue resolved. Good luck.

Default 2023 Disco Brakes and Rotors

We are having the same issue with ours. Did you find out what is causing it?
