Akebono
Akebono pads and Zimmerman rotors are the tried and true replacement brakes.
I replaced the rear brakes on my 24 rockcreek and had to buy a scan tool to release the electronic e brake and have it retract all the way in to get the new brakes on. The brand was autel i believe. It was around 400+$. Also had to register as a technician on it with a subscription for 60$ a year. It’s a pretty kickass scanner though but paying all that extra money sucks but I think in the long run it’s still cheaper that paying 400$ at the dealership every 20k miles to get the rear brakes replaced. Also you can pick your own brake pads and go for ceramic brakes. I use akebono brake pads. They don’t need to be broken in and last over twice as long and are extremely quiet. Best brake pads I’ve ever used. But around 90$ for A set though, not cheap for sure.
I think Akebono is the way to go
I would recommend Akibono… very high quality brake pads!!!
Yep....I don't like it, but that's how mine were received as well. I've never seen such poorly packaged brake pads which can leave a bad initial first impression, but the pads work fine.
"warped rotors" often mean pad deposits on the rotor surface. Maybe look to the pads for a fix this time. I've done well with high performance ceramic pads from Akebono
235 km/h on the german autobahn, from one border to the other, no issue! Except for the numerous heavy breaking... Going from over 200 to less than 100 several times in a row and you start loosing confidence in the brakes.
Pacific Mazda has been okay; they only pushed an unnecessary break maintenance so far.
I would stay away from ceramic Akebonos. Out of all ceramic pads I tried, they felt the most dangerous. They had close to zero initial bite and required three times the leg effort to brake.
