Brakes problem
2002 Toyota Celica 4 cyl

I recently changed the pads and rotors on this celica about 3 months ago. The driver's side rotor already has a groove in the rotor. A mechanic awhile ago told the owner that there was a bad caliper on the car. So I am planning on changing this caliper. The question is, if I change that one caliper, then change that rotor, do I need to change the passenger side's as well?

no, it only needs replaced if it is frozen / faulty.
