now, i am on the process of replacing my brake pads.... my left pads is okay please see brake5.jpg so i replaced that side(left-driver side) now when i open the right side(passenger side) i found this, please see break2.jpg and also found break6.jpg.... but on my service sheet report they don't mention any about the picture break6.jpg.
do you think they done an inspection on my both tires?....
because i am doubting it.....

please let me know your comments and thanks again for your help...
they are clearly trying to rob you, the cleaning thing is the brake vaccuum port its a defect they found in the braking system that if it is introduced to extremely cold weather it freezes up the brake and wont allow it to do its job thats suppose to be free of charge because its a defect and as for the service fee of $250 i got slotted rotors from powerslot and hawk performance pads for that price and just installed them myself. best investment ever. im going on 10k with the brakes and they still have more than half the pad left.
