    Purchased this car on may 22, 2018..used car with mileage of 48784 and we are seniors and do not travel far each year. We went to get a maine sticker on our vehicle and was told new back brakes and rotors are needed asap. Now has a mileage of 50284. We think it is too soon for rear brakes.

    Pre-mature wear of rear brake rotors. After 34,000 miles, squeaking brakes developed. Upon inspection, both rear brake rotors are severely scored while front rotors show no wear (smooth in appearance). Rear brake pads are still at 8mm thickness. Rear rotors will have to be replaced in near future at our expense.
