I had the same problem and the dealer recommended using an air impact hammer. I took one of the chisles that came with it and cut of the sharp point where I had basically the shaft diameter of approx. 1/2" in diameter. After impacting this off and on for about 5 to 10 minutes, the rust broke free and I was able to walk the rotor off. try a rubber mallet to break free the rust

In order to remove any rotors that stuck on a vehicle, usually you have to hit the rotor hub part with a large hammer being careful not to hit the wheel studs. This is done to break the seal of rust that builds up which keeps the rotor stuck. On some occasions, the rotor will have little threaded holes in which you have to drive the correct size bolt through until the rotor pops off.
