My Escape's brakes have been making some racket for a week or two, so I replaced them today. I originally bought the cheaper Durlast pads, which were not so great and didn't last very long. I flirted with upgrading to the Duralast Gold pads, but decided this will be the last time I'm putting pads on it (going to get a bigger vehicle) and it wasn't worth the money ($25 vs. $60).
Anyway.... I noticed the shims on the back said Duralast Gold when I was putting them in. I figured the factory had run out of one shim, and used the other. Well, as I was cleaning up I noticed a piece of paper in the bottom of the box. It said I had gotten a random "upgrade" on the pads. Anyone else see this before?
