   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brake_pad

   The brake pads must usually be replaced regularly (depending on pad material). Most brake pads are equipped with a method of alerting the driver when this needs to be done. A common technique is manufacturing a small central groove whose eventual disappearance by wear indicates the end of a pad's service life.

3. Car longevity - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Car_longevity

   Car longevity is of interest to many car owners [1] and includes several things: maximum service life in either mileage or time (duration), relationship of components to this lifespan, identification of factors that might afford control in extending the lifespan. Barring an accidental end to the lifespan, a car would have a life constrained by ...

4. Service life - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Service_life

   The difference between service life and predicted life is most clear when considering mission time and reliability in comparison to MTBF and service life. For example, a missile system can have a mission time of less than one minute, service life of 20 years, active MTBF of 20 minutes, dormant MTBF of 50 years, and reliability of 99.9999%.

5. Planned obsolescence - Wikipedia

7. Brake wear indicator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brake_wear_indicator

   The embedded sensor in the brake pad 2 contacts the rotor and creates a connection to ground of the sensor. The metal plate 3 contacts the rotor and creates a noise. This wear clip should be positioned so that the rotor contacts the clip before it contacts the brake pad. The rotor should push against that clip, not drag it away from the brake pad.
