25k miles on rotors sounds pretty harsh, but it can happen. Are you sure he didn't mean just pads? Get the service tech to show you what exactly is wrong with them and why they need to be replaced so quickly. If they're worn down, it'll be obvious to you that they need replacement when they show you.
Whatever you do, don't get them machined. Rotors are relatively cheap and machining old ones are not only a waste of time but also a waste of money. machine modern rotors really isn't recommended.
If it's the front rotors, head on over to your friendly Saturn dealer and buy front rotors for the Saturn L series. They're the same rotors (marked SAAB on them) and probably cheaper as well.
