I bought my car with 23000 miles on it. Around 26000 I was getting the squealing from my back brakes indicating it needed to be replaced. I looked at the pads myself and noticed that the only pad that was worn completely was the inside rear drivers side pad. I thought this could be a caliper issue so I brought it to the dealer. They told me everything was normal. So I replaced my brakes and now at 38000 that same pad is completely worn while the others are barely worn. I was told maybe the pad can't slide in the mount but that doesn't seem right. I've never heard of rear brakes needing to be replaced so early.

check for rust not letting caliper slide or a frozen piston you might take a file to loosen it oup a little.
