Default Rotors warped, how much damagevcan it cause to the surrounding parts?

So i just got my monte two weeks ago today, and ive noticed there was a vibrating when i start braking at around 50mph so i took it to a mechanic, and he said it was my rotor. i dont have the tools to fix it just yet tho... So i was wondering if anyone knew what i could damage if i continued to ride around with the rotor warped??

I don't think it will cause any serious damage to anything. I had all mine replaced a few months ago after driving mine with severely warped rotors. The guy that did the work said I should have never waited so long because of how bad the vibration was...

I assume you'll get uneven wear on your brakes and have to replace them more often then needed.
The vibrating may affect the wheel hub? but i don't know to what extent.
Good luck.

I don't think that the vibrating would be too good for any fasteners or bearings, seriously, I know money is tight, but I had this awhile back. Get it fixed ASAP!!
