2014 GL 450 Front Brake Wear Sensor

Does this model have a wear sensor for the front brakes that shows up on the dash when the pads need replacing?

I'm only speaking from experience. The wear sensors are only on the inner pad. My rear-right outer pad worn down to the metal and I can hear it scraping against my rotor. When I had the rotor and pads replaced, I saw that the sensor is only on one side.
