Currently at 24k miles on my 2015 Ecoboost Performance Package brakes. Still haven't changed them yet. Anyone know if our brakes have audible wear indicators? I couldn't get a good look at my pads through my wheels. Gonna have to remove them and check one of these days if we don't have any squealers.

I changed mine to StopTech Z26 at 25k because I was tired of the brake dust. I reckon the fronts still had about 50% life in them at the time.

I'm at 98k and still going! That is a lot of highway miles though, so my brakes probably don't get as much use as most others

You shouldn't be even remotely close to changing pads. I was autocrossing my car for three years - which was heavier then EB - easily more than hundred runs a year and there was plenty of pads left. Don't even worry about it at 25k miles. Or take wheel off and look at remaining pad thickess, it takes about 2 minutes.

Front pads started squeaking at 30k with maybe 10% left and the rear pads still had a good 30% I’d say. Just changed them to akebono pads recommended by Scotty Kilmer

I made the mistake of using a spreader on the rear brakes which need to turn and bent the shit out of it
