Rear brakes went out at 23,000 miles. Needed new rotors and pads. Ford makes disposable rotors, in that they can't be turned or resurfaced. They are throw away rotors, and I had to buy all new ones at $100 a piece. Why did rear go out before front" why does Ford make disposable parts" don't know, but it is a shame and a rip off.
