Depends on how you drive. Some people will burn through brakes cause the others. There is a reason brake pads are considered a "wear item" and not covered under warranty.

76k and about 40% left on the pads.
The brake moan TSB kit never completely resolved the problem, still has a slight noise backing up in the morning.

I changed mine at 112K. The rears were at 10% remaining, the fronts were easily still 50%+ still remaining...that surprised me. I replaced with premium level from Advance Auto and I am VERY pleasantly surprised with the performance...definitely better than OEM. And my brake moan kit works perfectly, I get no moan whatsoever. If you still have the noise I'd try to tighten all the bolts a bit more.

75k is great on oem pads imo. I wouldn't bat an eye replacing those, it's cheap parts and you can do it yourself.
