Brake pads Bendix or OEM Chevrolet

the pads on my Bolt lasted 130,000 miles

I’ve had my 2024 over a year and 30,000 km’s. I just had my brakes cleaned and the back up squeal is gone.

I've used Bendix for decades now. I think they're a very underrated brand. I've never had any troubles out of them. I was a mechanic for almost 25 years. I've used just about every pad out there. For my personal stuff, I look for Bendix. The reasonable price and excellent quality is what I've always appreciated.

Bendix Ceramic. $20. OG rotors at 140k, they've been turned once and are within spec. Next time I'll grab the DD Centric rotor/pad combo off RockAuto for $55.

I'm still using the factory rotors as they calipered just fine within spec at 132k. I just put on some standard Bendix ceramic for under $20. Didn't even turn my rotors because they were smooth as glass as I live in the south. Made sure to service the slide pins of course. As far as durability, you just can't beat the factory rotors so if they are still within spec, I see no reason to replace.

Basically they feel factory new with a nice progressive pedal dynamic.

12k miles. My brakes squeal the first time i use them in the morning.

My Equinox has 10,400km and will always make noise under braking at the beginning of the ride and then gradually stops. Braking feels good though.

My 2025 RS AWD has been having squealing brakes since 1,000 miles at low speed. It has 3,500 on it now and it's annoying.

My breaks were squeaking with less than 5000 miles. Bad and embarrassing squeaking.

I have about 1k miles on my 25 Equinox EV and the brakes have started doing this. It’s horrendous backing out of my driveway and at drive thru’s. Sounds like I’m driving an old beat up car that I haven’t maintained.
