1 of 2 problems
You have glazing on the rotors (a few high speed stops should solve that)
And what my money is on, rotors are warped

Somehow rotors are covered under warranty, but you're outside that warranty anyways

I had this happen to me a few months ago. I had some mud in the radial slot in one of the pads which wore a rough spot on one side of the rotor. Cleaned the pad and replaced the rotor. Rotor probably could have been turned.
