Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I have a 2006 ford freestyle with 16,000 miles and i have been told that i not only have to replace the rear brake pads but the rotors as well. i researched the internet and there are many other complaints like this for this particular car. this is way too early for brake pads to be wearing out and if it was "normal wear and tear" the front pads should need replaced since 70% of the braking occurs there. something needs to be done because ford is unwilling to acknowledge the issue. *jb
