I personally would not turn rotors today. Do you really need pads? Depending on your brake habits, you could. The brakes don't need to make noise to need replacing, they just might be worn enough that they don't. Is this for state inspection?

if you are in the salt belt area then the rotors can get rusty. I know that Kia and Hyundai brakes do not seem to last like other Makes. I have worked with these cars a fair amount. And like TDolby said, it could be they are getting worn and whoever advised to get rotors turned should update their Mechanics License by a couple of Decades in my opinion
