    What’s the other side pad look like? If the slider pins are stuck or not properly lubricated, one side brake pad will wear out way faster than the other.

    Edit: Also the rotor doesn’t look happy. IMHO, it’s due for a full proper service.

      I am not a mechanic, but I do change my own brakes. And I agree that rotor looks line it could use a turning.

        Rotors are cheap enough that turning is hardly a thing these days. It might be worth it, but it’s an extra hassle imo.

          I have not had to replace rotors in well over a decade, the last time I did they were $90 each. Getting them turned usually cost me $40-60 for all four (depending if the person rang me up vs give them a tip)
