I brought it to midas or monroe or some shit, my own cheap ass fault i had a 50% off coupon for nys inspection and the garage was empty at the time. So then they try harder than fuck to find something wrong. He pulled all the wheels, and the rear calipers, where the pads where getting along in their life. I will have to reread the inspection rules, but I was told by DMV officials that I’m not allowed to remove calipers and pads on inspections. Pulling all 4 wheels is legit, but unless the pads were metal to metal or hitting the wear indicators they really shouldn’t have failed it. The way the law reads if I remember correctly the friction material is suppose to be separating from the backing or the friction surface would have to be severly damaged. If there was only a very small crack they shouldn’t have failed your truck. Post a picture of the pad so John, myself and the other inspectors can take a look. --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/failed-inspection-question/255787)._
