Why are brake pads getting so hot?
Friction makes brakes get hot. Whenever you step on the brake pedal, the kinetic energy of the vehicle is converted to heat energy to stop the vehicle. Having said that, the brakes can run a little hot if the calipers are not fully releasing and the rear brakes can overheat if you fail to release the parking brake. It's extremely rare that the master cylinder doesn't fully release the brakes.

04 alero front brakes get hot why?
This could be for a few reasons, but if they are getting hot without you applying them, I would suggest that they are sticking and causing the pads to rub on the discs, or if they are drum brakes, the shoes on the drums. If they are only getting hot as a result of using the brakes, I would suggest checking that the brakes are balanced properly, and that the front brakes are not doing all of the work/ or that the back brakes are working at all.
