I should clarify a bit. The brakes on my truck never overheated, I never smelled burning pad, and they never faded out. They actually work well but the front rattles like a drum roll when I push on the pedal.

Though keep in mind the pads could still get hot enough to transfer material if you came to a stop at a traffic light after a long hill and then sat there with your foot on the brake.

I'm sure that's happened several times, you've seen the trailer I tow, that thing gets heavy when it's full.
