I just did mine at 60k I bought Bosch and they’ve been great.
Mymotorworld has Bosch front and backs at around £45 for pads they also have textar a good brand for a little more. I wouldn’t bother with the other cheap pads given the acceleration you can get with the car.
I installed the Bosch ceramic pads on a Hyundai Sonata, no issues with it
I had a 2008 Ford Fusion and drove by large long distance (commuted for a while between SFO and LA).
Eventually I moved to the East Coast and needed to do mandatory car checks (started in DC). When we finally moved to NYC I was at the garage and needed to do the inspection. The guy said he cannot let me pass, because the brake pads where at the limit. I ask him to change them and mentioned that this is the first replacement of my brake pads and he was shaking his head in disbelief because I had almost exactly 100k miles on my odometer. I explained to him that almost 90% of the mileage was long distance ( minimum of 200 miles on way trips) and he still was saying “He never saw anybody having their first brake pads replaced at 100k miles”
Braking is mostly regenerative, instead of using the brake pads. Your brake pads will probably last between 100k - 200k miles.
I used the Bosch Quietcast from Rock Auto. Works great for me as a daily and there is minimal brake dust.
After replacing the brakes with Bosch and tires with Michelin CrossClimate, over 30k miles later and brakes have at least another 50-60k life left, and tires too, since they have 80k miles warranty.
Bosch szettet vettem. Baj nincs vele, 60k km de a 0.tól kezdve nyikorog, mint a picsa.
Ford Territory! The brakes felt spongey
Brakes are too touchy, more than any other vehicle I've driven.
