Should drum brakes wear out sooner on FWD?

Asked by Raeraeivy Apr 23, 2020 at 10:26 PM about the 2016 Jeep Patriot Sport

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

I recently had my brakes inspected on my Jeep
Patriot 2016 FWD. I was told the brake pads on the
front disc brakes are good but that the drum brakes
in the rear were only at 30 percent. I’m wondering if
this is normal, I have always thought the disc brake
pads wear sooner than drum.

First of all, in2016 Jeep should be ashamed to sell to the public drum brakes.Maybe a twitter post Might make a change.
