Default Should I be worried?

Went to change out the rear brakes and saw this. Truck has 85K miles on it.

Also, the rear pads look a little weird to me. The left side is much darker and seems to be worn down more than the right.

Not a big deal. Differential cover is seeping some, not dripping. Good time to change it at 85K miles and reseal the cover and that will take care of it. Brakes are normal. Not that much of a difference. You could go more miles on those pads, not that bad.

Thanks brihvac. Went ahead and picked up new pads, just so I don't have to deal with it for awhile. The rotors, after the beating I gave them, needed to be replaced as well.

My 2014 has 16K miles on it and my pads look brand new BUT my front rotors look like I have been metal to metal for awhile they are so grooved.

What would cause this? The one that's destroyed is the inside pad...

I second the stuck caliper. Might want to fix that before you put new pads on or the same thing will happen again.

+1 for stuck caliber.
inside usually wear faster the out side but only time i saw that was a stuck caliper.

for rotors i have used rotorworks since the started business. on several cars and trucks. call them as their website sucks. it is a local father/son business that uses centric rotors and the use cnc machines to cut and drill the rotors.
