Brake system pad replacement

manghong · 06-08-2017, 12:44 AM

When I drive my car this morning during a traffic light, the Brake system warning message shown with the hand brake light came on as well, after checking my brake pads, it seems to have enough pads left (front and rear image below). Anyone know if this could causing by low brake fluid level or something else, thank you!

The sensors may have gone bad. You may need to get them replaced.

Could be the inner pad.
