Any one had this happen, on the M27 towing the caravan with a mondeo,braked in traffic,not hard and the pad lining came away from the metal backing.I had to pump the brakes to get the pressure back and slow down.the pads and discs were only about 10 months old, and the pads were only a third worn.When changed the pads on both sides two of the others fell apart.Any one else had this happen.

Seen it happen on bike front pads too, after a lot less miles - and not on a budget brand either. On the plus side, the place isn't likely to claim 'wear and tear' rather than admit to a manufacturing defect, so take 'em back

Was advised not to buy Goldfren because theyre crap. Always buy EBC but careful of those on fleabay as some are fakes.
