Just got back from the dealership to have my oil changed and brakes serviced and I ended up needing new rear pads and rotors. It didn't occur to me at the time, but when I got home I dug up a receipt from november 2017 where I had my rear brakes and pads replaced (under warranty). This was 6400 miles ago.
How are my rear brakes already finished after only putting 6400 miles on them? I ended up calling them back after I found the receipt from 2 years ago and the service advisor told me because I don't drive the car much, the rear brakes are more prone to rusting out due to not getting enough use. Is this a legitimate reason for needing new brakes this soon or am I being bamboozled?
