This is the second time I have had to replace a rotor due to the bolt that make the brakes squeeze not working which eats away at the rotor . The Mechanic says the grease on the Bolt washes off and theres nothing I can do about it but have it greased again. I have had the truck 6 years before this happened so it should not be happening twice in 1 year now! Anyone else have this problem?

The pistons could be locking up too, not just the pins. Might just need new calipers or rebuild what you have. The pins are covered a bit, so the grease should last quite awhile.
