Too thrifty?

Saw one where center web at the hub rusted through. Rotor rusted to pads. Spun wheel during a service and rotor stayed stationary. Boss let it out the door like that,i wanted to put it out of service.

my sister wore out a set of pads so bad one side was gone and piston was doing the stopping.

drove one in shop, and rotor disentegrated as i was driving it into my bay. Had to pick up the chunks,left a trail of parts.

Brakes are really neglected, i think mostly because it can get expensive.
