was it under warranty?

CX5 has bad history of brake issues. My 2021 had all pads replaced at 15k, then rear pads replaced at 23k, now at 30k they are at 60% I couldn't find any ETBs for that, this is the closest one 2019 CX-5 Brake questions My 2016 one had exact same issues Most of my driving is highways at 65mph+

Lights on my 2021 are weaker than I had on 2016 w/tech. 2016 w/tech was a really nice car overall.

are you saying fog lights can be turned on without headlights?

Does that apply to 2016 only? Dealer replaced rear brake pads half a year ago on my '21 and last week they told me pads are at 6 (out of 10)
