Brake Caliper - Problems!

I found grooves in the brake caliper from the pads!

Maybe inside pad push out disc and snapring on the driveshaft? (Sorry for bad english but hope you understand)

What is the main reason to that grooves in the caliper?

Because there isn’t stainless inserts to prevent it.

Something we can do to avoid grooves in the caliper?

Are there any aftermarket calipers out there with better materials? I know there are rotors.

I was going to check Polaris since they run Hayes also.

I was thinking machine off grooved area and replace material with stainless. My warranty is done this year so next time will have to do something. If under warranty turn it in.
