The left rear brake system has a defect that has resulted in the left rear inner brake pad to wear through at an accelerated rate resulting in brake failure with no friction material left. The other three brake pads in the rear have plenty of material. Excessive sounds, a sensation of dragging in the left rear part of the car, noises from the left rear of the car after releasing the brakes at approximately 10k miles, and eventually metal-on-metal grinding noises starting around 20k miles were reported multiple times to the servicing dealership. However, the service advisor reported there was plenty of material, and that they all make such sounds, but would not actually test drive it to confirm the reported noises. By continuing to drive the vehicle in this condition, it put the occupants and others on the road at increased risk.
