Why do my front brakes wear out quicker than rear brakes on my 1999 Dodge Ram 1500?

It could be that the rear brakes are not functioning properly; leading to the front brakes having to compensate. That is, if the front ones are going out much quicker than the rear. I believe that the front ones just naturally wear faster than the rear ones On a light truck the front brakes will do up to 75% of the braking.

Why did the back disc break wear out before front?

For starters, there's not as much material there so theoretically it would take less time to wear out. Depending on the brake bias on your car, rear rotors will likely wear faster than front ones; if your auto manufacturer set a high rear brake bias - so as to reduce nose dive under braking - the rear brakes see more wear than usual and can easily wear down before the front brakes do. Also, if you accidentally drive around with your parking brake on, that'll wear down your rear brakes too.

Usually the front brakes wear out first. Brake usage isn't covered under warranty because wear depends on how the person uses them. If you use them a lot more (stop and go traffic) they wear out a lot faster. if the rear are worn, check the front as well.

No, most of the stopping is performed by the front brakes. But Honda uses a braking system that applies the rear brakes first. For this reason the rear brakes on some Hondas will wear out first.


Is it necessary to change front and rear rotors on a 96 Accord at the same time and what is the ballpark cost as was quoted 1000 and 275?

no you do not have to replace both front and rear rotors at the same time unless both are severly needed. your front brakes do 70- 80% of all breaking so they normally wear a lot faster than the rear.
