brake pads

OK, so the brake job saga continues... Chevy Dealer A told me about two weeks ago that I need to replace the Volt's front brake pads because they were worn down, plus the rotors. Said the rotors cant be turned/resurfaced... because there's a special coating on the rotors. Price = +$600 Now...

Any L only drivers with over 30,000 miles get their brake pad wear level checked? I've crossed the 2 year mark with similar mileage but wasn't planning on getting the pads checked for a few more years. Thanks, MrEnergyCzar
