Here's an idea. Maybe you can go to your local AutoZone and pay $204.99 for the exact same set. Same brand, same part number, same factory fresh new condition, identical in every way. Maybe tripling the price will make you and your family feel safer.

I have seen YouTube videos on recycled rotors made in Pakistan using aluminum scrap and soda cans. Don't do it.

Quote from E4300 :
New pads may only contact a small section of the rotor's braking surface, resulting in uneven thermal load when one attempts bed-in. Most cars today are equipped with ABS. New quality pads are perfectly capable of locking up the wheel, even if the pads are not "bed-in".

99% of the people don't take their cars to the racetrack after installing new pads. Akebono, a well respected brake pads manufacturer do not advocate the practice of bed-in brake pads. Why bed-in new pads if you don't race in the street?
I don't agree with not bedding in pads. I've had bad results when I didn't, and have had too many people that install them for a living tell me that you should.

As for Akebono, they don't *require* bed in, but many people say for best results, you should. I just installed Akebono ProACT pads, and there was no way I wasn't going to bed them.

I've replaced a few cars and suv's with powerstop without any complaints and they bite hard. Even if they're made of recycled materials -- they still have to meet ISO standards. So what's the problem? Most of the items we all own are made in China and I haven't heard any complaints. LOL.

I'm on the side of bedding in as well. Maybe they should call it breaking in, because the process wears off any factory coatings on the pad (like the red coating you sometimes see) and knocks down any tiny high spots on the pad surface, in addition to mating it exactly to the rotor's machined surface. It only takes a few minutes and certainly doesn't do any harm. I'm more confident in new brakes after knowing they've been properly broken in.

It's arguable that normal driving will do all of the above over time, but I'd rather that my brakes be at optimum performance before getting out into traffic. For me that's what the break-in does.

Normal driving won't break them in because you need several really hard stops to get them hot, followed by drive time to allow them to cool before holding the brakes while stopped. If they're still hot and you stop, thus the pad is held against the rotor, it puts material in that spot.

Toyota and Honda don't "bed" brake pads, and they build XXX,XXX cars each year. I've installed quality pads in various cars over +40 years and have never encountered non-bedding issue. My personal experiences are supported by Toyota and Honda.

Just curious, how do you know that?

Regardless, regardless of whether Power Stop recommends it or not, many brake companies do, as shown in the earlier links. Also
https://www.centricparts.com/medi...C22-01.pdf
https://www.centricparts.com/medi...C22-03.pdf

And I've worked at two different car dealer service departments, and there wasn't a day we didn't have a vehicle in for original brakes pulsating, to fix under warranty.

Also, many car owners manuals mention using the brakes softly for x miles. Soft even have a brake bed in procedure to do during PDI.

From people who work at the USA Toyota and Honda assembly plants. Time is $. Who pays for the extra 20 minutes to break in those new pads? New brake calipers and guide pins better be within a few thousands off when properly assembled!

The best auto techs don't work at dealership. Pulsating brake could be caused by defective ABS module and other issues. I have never encountered a car coming off an assembly line with pulsating brake. Failure to bed in pads cannot cause brake pedal pulsation!

There is a big difference between "using the brakes softly" and performing aggressive brake bedding. Total system tolerance between brake caliper, guide pins, and brake pads should not exceed 0.015" when new. This gap should disappear within 200-300 of normal driving.

Sure, but rare.

Tell that to most of the brake mfgr's (and techs) that say otherwise.

OK...so what is the failure mode behind brake pulsation when one fails to bed brake pads? I'm fluent in physics so feel free to get technical. Dealers charge $120-$150/hour for labor. And you are paid 18-25? Only ignorant people work for cheap!

Finally, raise your hand if you take your car to the Stealership,..5x markup over MSRP for a gasket! And don't expect the Stealership to use genuine OEM fluid that came with your car.

Stupid techs + greedy dealer = empty wallet when you get your car service at the Stealership.

My comment got deleted because I included google maps links, but if you look at factories for Toyota, Honda, and Nissan at least, you'll see they have tracks. Each car is driven around the track after assembly. I know someone who used to do it. It wouldn't take much if any more time to bed the brakes.
