Early wear out of Inner RR pad S60 2012

Auto makers have changed the way brakes operate so that the rear pads may wear FASTER than front pads.

A few years ago, many owners were caught by this change as they had rear pad problems sneak up on then as they expected rear pads to last twice as long as front ones as had occurred in the past.

The solution - check all pads during regular maintenance.

Every 7500 service, I get pad thickness and expected life measures on all wheel positions from my dealer.

My son-in-law is a Subaru tech and he tells me that newer Subarus wear their rear pads faster than the fronts also.
