07' Brakes

mpowers · January 31st, 2010, 04:36 AM

I recently got my rear brakes replaced through a non-ford brake shop and was informed that my front brakes had only about 20% wear and my rear brakes were almost 100% worn out. I was wondering if it is normal for this particular model to wear more on the back brakes, than on the front. I was also informed that with each brake pad change, this particular model needs new rotors, as they cannot be machined or turned. That has never been my experience with brakes, so I don't know if this is something to always expect with this model. Any ideas?

I am having the same issue on mine..
I was told my E-Brake is getting stuck on so the butt drags behind me while I cruise down the road.

The person told me to "tap" it with a "Hammer" and the problem will go away... He wanted to charge me $800 for parts/labor
