What caused it? Will it pass inspection?
Probably happened before i bought the car, right...cause i havent heard or felt anything going on with the brakes since i bought it
Probably a rock or something getting caught. 36,400k miles for rotors isn't all that bad to be honest. If your pad look like they need replacing soon, it might be a good idea to just upgrade rotors and new pads at once. It's a surprisingly easy DIY if you have some basic mechanical skills. If the gouge is deep, I'd replace it regardless of passing inspection.
