What did the other side look like?
Chevy did this to me with my wife cruze. I bought all the parts and had the same amount of wear.
Sounds like the stealership tried to scam you.
I had my Toyota at the dealership and they said the pads were due. I took the car to an independent mechanic and he said the pads were all good but the right rear wheel bearing was toast and it was.
I’d be pissed. yeah I couldn’t even bring my self to have them serves my vehicle while it’s under the warranty. 150 bucks for a oil change!?!?!? And it’s not even a mechanic that that does the oil changes anymore their porters. I’m good just updated it on the car fax report and keeping receipts. 25 dolors of supplies and 125dolor of labor? To a 17 year old kid getting payed 12 bucks a hr and it takes 30 min max? End rant
Nono the pads weren’t dangerously low just the texhs paycheck this week
There is probably 30 or 40 thousand miles left on those.
4mm of depth is the point you want to start thinking about replacement. Anything above that you are safe. As long as both inner and outer pad are the same too.
The rule of thumb is any less then the backplate is technically unsafe. Over time the pad material heats and cools over and over causing faults. When it thins it’s more likely to break or crack along the stress lines.
You were swindled. Probably 10-30k more miles depending how you drive.
Never ever ever listen to anything a dealership tells you there so full of shit it’s coming out of their mouths
Is no one going to ask about the condition of the old rotor? Sure the pad looks decent, but maybe the old rotor was completely worn out?
I just wait for mine to start shrieking
No those will probably last another 6 months to year depending how much you drive.
I once went to the dealer for oil change and inspection when I got a call telling me they could not pass the inspection because the breaks were needed. I told them I needed a week to secure money to pay, and if they would give me a 10 days temporary inspection. It was bs but I did nit want to commit since I did not believe them. When I picked up the car, inspections was done, I didn’t say anything, paid and drove out. I drove with those brakes for 2 years, I never went back.
