Hi everyone,
My 2018 R just past 22000 miles and got a new set of all 4 new tires replaced from Firestone. Then, the mechanic shows me the rear set of brake pads are worn out badly and need replacement (photos). The front brake is fine.
The Honda dealer gave me a quote to replace both brake pads for $351.32 and approximately $150 for both rotor services.
Firestone gave me a quote to replace both (after-market) brake pads and replace both (after-market) brake rotors, parts, and labor total is about $500 plus tax. Firestone mechanic mention Type R brake rotors are replaced only!
Questions 1:
Is it normal 22000 miles cause the rear set of brake pads worn out like that? If so, why only the rear set of brake pads only, not the front brake?
Questions 2:
Both Honda dealer and Firestone quoted me about $500 plus tax, the difference is the dealer said to service the rotor, but Firestone said to replace the rotor only. What do you think??
