Not true at all.
white04XF, what rotors did you get? As far as the rotex pads, did you use anti-squeal on the back of the pads and did you do a proper bedding-in of the pads?
I have had rotex pads on mine for over 32K and have never had the first squeal or grabbing brakes. They are just as good, if not a little better, than the factory pads without the dust.
I would recommend taking them out, using the anti-squeal as directed, and then bed them in using whatever method you feel comfortable doing. A google search will give you any number of methods to bed your pads. It works.
