Wife's 12 PP SHO has 28k miles and the front pads are shot. Time to search for replacement pads.. Anyone else wear theirs out as fast? Seems way early to me.. :-(

I've had several brake issues so don't get me started.

I'm at 60k now and they are making a bad noise, so I just ordered all new pads, rotors, and steel braided lines. And going to flush the fluid.

EBC slotted rotors, EBC yellow pads, and steel lines, total to my door was a little under $700

Where did you get them for that price? And is it for both front and rear?

The fronts on my F-150 were shot at 30K, and the discs were shot too.  I am not surprised...I know our Explorer needed replaced somewhere in that mileage range, between wife towing camper and the fact that she runs all the way up to a red light/stop sign before braking, I wasn't too upset. Besides, I let her pay for the new ones on the Explorer

2010 - 2012 Taurus and more so the SHO are Notorious for their poorly  designed brakes and short lived wear/warped rotors , etc etc etc.

Hopefully the 2013+ redesigned upgraded component's will fair better.

'13 SHO has 60% more swept area, larger cylinders and heavier/larger rotors than the brakes on the '10-'12.  6months so far... no problems... definitely stops.

I don't know, But I think for the weight and performance of these cars 28-30K is not that bad. Hell I have to replace my tires every 10K and brakes every 15-20K on my bike. Its just a price we pay to have fun.
