True..Buy if they are pulsating when stopping the rotors may need to be resurfaced..

My wife doesn'rt speed going down the road, but is still doing 30 m.p.h. 20 feet before she has to turn. She wondered why her front pads wear out. Just about every time I ride with her I ask her to not drive into the corner, slow down first and flow through the corner. Dirty look...........and then I say you'd think you were a cop chasing somebody. That always gets her. I'd still get those rotors turned also.

try to explain to her she needs to be a little easier on the brakes or you will most likely have this problem again in 20,000.

most pads have a strip on back of pads to stop squeeks,also calipers shift and rust and can cause squeeks,no way pads should be worn out at 20 k.check you warantee book call the 800 number and see if they can do anything for you.dealership basically blew you off,they could have gotten pads from another dealer or parts store.mfg will often make goodwill adjustments.
