My 2016 F350 DRW has been eating rear brake pads like they are potato chips. I replaced them in November and had to again in May and I also replaced the rotors at that time as well. Now just into July and it's eaten another set and I'll have to replace the pads this weekend.
This truck is in mud (clay/sand type) regularly due to excessive rains the past few months and my 1/2 mile of mud/driveway, so things do get caked with mud however the front brakes go through the same mud and are also caked yet they are not wearing excessively. It's also not sticking slide pins since the left and right rear wear evenly, just excessively. There is also no indication of excessive heat and the MPG doesn't appear to be affected much.
The rain finally seems to be easing so hopefully I'll be able to fix up my driveway so the mud will be eliminated and I'll be able to see how much impact that is really having. It's also not my driving as my 2009 F350 DRW went seven years and a great many miles on all original brakes just inspecting them regularly before I traded it for the 2016 though it saw a lot less mud.
Thoughts? Anyone else having similar problems? Help!
