Did you do an agressive burn-in/bed-in process when they were first installed? That helps avoid deposits on the rotors of organic compounds when done right. And if this is done, months of tame braking can expose organics and one extreme brief braking even can create a transfer to the rotor. I think these performance brakes need to be use agressively to keep them in the right state. Otherwise, these are fantastic brake pads, but might not be for everyone. Can't call them trouble free.
The rotors may be true, but if ignored, they might warp from uneven heating. I had one of these things happen on my 03 9-5 Aero. I did some repeated agressive braking and burnt off the deposits and the brakes have since been totally smooth since.
Read the link for methods. I don't think that one has to burn the pads as much as the link suggests. Try burning the problem off and let us know how it goes. You might need a couple of sessions, followed by some more agressive stops under day to day conditions. Quite variable, use yor own judgement.
