My wife’s 19 trail boss custom just gave her a message that new brake pads were detected, she thinks it’s cool that she has “self rejuvenating” brakes, however I’m concerned there maybe another issue(Caliper starting to hang up?) anyone run into this before?

Wait a minute! These trucks are so full of electronics it’s going to notice new brakes? Like the owner wouldn’t know? Well then. How about something useful like? Like hey dude! Your hanging too long in the left lane get the…. over. Your impending traffic. Next you’ll be getting tickets in the mail. Your truck will rat you out. Could be useful if you let your teenager use the truck. Get out of the back seat!!!!

Yes there is a brake pad life system, I should add these are the original brakes with 37k on the truck.

My 2019 Denali gave me this same message one time.  About 6 months later I got another message pop up in the DIC saying to replace the brake pads.  The day before my pad life indicators were showing 60% front and 78% rear.  When the replace brake pad warning popped up it was showing -- for front and -- for rear and the brake monitor system lit up red and showed it was disabled.  Took it in to have it checked out and the pads and rotors on all 4 corners were done.  They think the "New brake pads installed" message was when it wore through the pad life sensor.  Pads were almost at the backing plates.  As a side note my truck did not initially come with the brake monitor system update, but the history shows that it was done twice in 2021, and one other time but I can't recall that date.

      MPG at 600 miles

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      There are probably a few threads talking about fuel mileage but this one seemed to fit the stats I have seen based on my typical local driven route but with different outcomes based on different seasons/temperatures. I have a few hundred pounds of items that consistently ride on the truck at all times such as a bak flip cover, rubber bed mat, tools and extra fuel so I would be something over 8100 lb without me in the truck. All these examples are based on a 100 mile round trip to a town plus running around town so maybe 110 to 120 miles in total for a trip. Using regular fuel and I assume it always has some ethanol in it but don't know the percentage they blend in. Also speed wise I am going at 62 mph and non aggressive driving although less speed yet if its crappy winter condition roads. I am going by an initial reset of the computer generated fuel use numbers averaged over a couple of thousand miles or so for each weather/season so they may be more optimistic then actual hand calculated numbers. Basically this is painting a picture of doing the same drive but seasonal conditions and temperature being the major variable to the end result. Oh and although I am in Alberta Canada, I am converting it to miles per US gallon so there is no confusion.    So winter time it gets cold here, no real surprise there and the roads can be clear at times but also often have packed rough snow or are are driving through loose snow ( they do a poor job of plowing the highways ) and yes this includes the extra idle engine time due to trying not to freeze ones butt off. 12.7 mpg is what I was getting during the winter months on average.    Then during the spring when it was around the freezing point and the highways are clear of snow, I was getting around 14.25 mpg.   Summer time, I have been getting around 15.15 on average but certainly some of the trips showed quite a bit better fuel mileage, so much depended on how much or little I had driven around town and number of engine restarts after sitting for a while at each location. But stating a best fuel mileage trip to town pretending that is what the truck gets on average is fooling ones self for sure !.      As I said in a different post, I had driven a 645 mile trip over a couple of days stint to a different destination then these other daily to town examples above, and was done during the summer with nice weather and not bucking a head wind, also keeping at 62 mph and its a rolling landscape type highway drive ( this isn't southern Alberta or Saskatchewan flat lands ) Hand calculated fuel mileage in this case though and it came out to 17.65
