I last did the front brakes on our 04 Escape - 180k back in 2018 with 161k, so it hasn't been that long. Not sure when noticed it first but the brakes for a while didn't seem to grab as you'd expect, in the last month it got way worse so tore it apart today. Heavy groves on the drivers inner side smaller groves on the passenger. Everything seemed to free and still alot of lube on the pins. I didn't change the rotors just the pads last time but I can't recall if there was groves on the old pads. The rotors have over 80k.
I ordered Raybestos coated rotors and new pins, I'll get the boots local. Before I put it back together and ideas what caused the groves? I'd like this to be the last brake job!
