You may have a band of rust intruding from the outer edge into the path of the
pad.  In this case, the rotor is toast and must be replaced.  I have this on a
chevy I own.

I think the reason most shops turn rotors is to get rid of uneven brake pad
deposits that will cause chatter/vibration/pulsing.  You could cleanup the
rotors with a 3M scotch brite pad (also have them for drills).  I use a
flex hone to clean-up my rotors before new pads.  http://amzn.com/B007INTEFY
