Just took my 2012 Grand Cherokee V6 4x4 in for an oil change, and was told that my rear brakes are almost worn out, but my fronts still have plenty of life left on them.
The Jeep only has 16,000 mi. on it and the rear brake pads only have 3mm left while the front pads have 7mm per the technician.
There were no signs of the calipers sticking or getting hung up.
Shouldn't the front and rear brakes wear evenly, or at least the fronts should wear out faster than the rears because they do most of the braking?
Is there a proportioning valve on this system that maybe isn't set properly?
Any ideas what might be causing this?
