Your braking pedal will be depressed numerous times during even a quick trip around Oak Park, and the surface of your brake pads will be forced against the brake rotors whenever that happens. Toyota brake pads should last around 5,000 miles before needing to be replaced, but they may sometimes require attention sooner due to the intense strain each one is subjected to during daily driving.
Signs your brake pads require replacing sooner than anticipated include:

Brake rotors don’t require attention as often as brake pads. In fact, you shouldn’t need to have yours replaced until between 30,000 to 70,000 miles have passed. Signs they need replacing sooner include:
You can also visually inspect your brake rotors for signs of wear. If you notice any surface cracks, they almost certainly need to be replaced.
