Hi!
One year and 9,000 miles later from my first rear breaks pads replacements, here we go again!
Rear breaks are totally worn out, but the front breaks still have like 65%
Dealership wanted a rear disk rectification, I told him NO. I'm not a mechanic but disc appearance looked good and break feeling was as usual.
I was afraid that he will later tell me that I need new disks. They only replaced the pads and everything seems good.
I have another BMW 528i with 22,000 miles and breaks are in good condition! I'm sure MB is using rubber break pads
or some very low quality pads. If not, should be a design flaw in the break system or the COLLISION PREVENTION ASSIST is using the breaks every time the red triangle show in the dash,
Anyway, I will sell this car in some months, I wish good luck to the next owner.
Best regards!

Went to the dealership because my brakes were squeaking. Dealership calls me stating both my front and rear pads are between 3-4MM and need to be replaced. I only have 6,500 miles on my car. I have service included but they're telling me brakes aren't included in the prepaid maintenance. Dealership wants about $650 to replace brake pads.

brought my car in for the service A and because my brake sensor light came on in my 2016 C450. Car only has 7k miles on it and dealer is saying I need to pay to replace the rear pads and rotors and soon the front pads and rotors in a few months.
i haven't tracked the car but do drive it like an AmG. Have had many Mercedes and Bmw m cars and never had to replace pads in the 3 years of the leases let alone the first 8 months.
how do I fight this to get the warranty to cover under abnormal wear and tear?
