@Flakman I drove my camaro with a very light brake foot. No grinding noises, but apparently did have a stuck caliper. One inspection shortly before I got rid of the car revealed significant inboard wear. Outboard pads looked fine. I can't remember if this was front or rear.

 

Very much understood. Wasn't a shot at you, just another issue with the shop. If the inboards are thrashed then it's not typically something a brake job alone is going to fix.

 

I just had to replace the rear pads on my 2010X at 70K km. I have not replaced the front yet. I have always said the rear get used much less than the front but that is not the case with this car. It does stop better than any other car I have owned as well.

 

those pads are fine and I wouldn't replace rotors anyhow

 

Those pads are 5-6mm. The shop is right to tell you that you will need pads soon. I am a master tech and see this everyday. Doesn't mean they have to be replaced now but they are in the caution stage. For example, if a used car dealer were to sell this car, they can not legally sell it without brake pads 7mm or higher. At least here in California. So no need to question the shop. They are just doing there job of informing you about your brakes condition.
