I recently put new front brake pads and rotors on my 2014 F150 when i noticed that only the top half of the pad seemed to be making contact with the rotor on the pass.side only, what can be causing this?

Pads not oriented properly.



Notice the pad with humps goes on the inside of the rotor.

Ran into the same issue as the last several vehicles had the same pads for inner and outer so I didn't bother looking this one time lol. I installed both non hump pads on the first side by luck.

You're right after taking another look at the pads I noticed they were marked inner and outer I had both inners on one wheel and both outers on the other, all is good now, thanks.
