So I wanted to know if anyone has replaced their stock brake pads yet? I have 27,000 miles on my car and my brakes have begun to squeak at every stop. So I am thinking my pads need to be replaced. I have never had a small car before this, I used to drive a lifted truck and went through brake pads pretty quickly. Also I contacted the dealership about recall issues about the seat and they are trying to charge me 699 for a 30K mile service. Does anyone know what all is done for this service? I know they said transmission flush and wanted 229 just for that. Is the transmission flush needed at 30K with the CVT?

You just gotta check the pads... if they are still good, no issues, if theres nothing left, then they gotta go!

Did they replace your front calipers and pads for the service bulletin?

I just looked at the brake pads and they appear to have ample material on them. I did not replace my front calipers or pads for the service bulletin. I did not see anything concerning this. Do you have more information about that? Thanks for your help
