Park Brake Malfunction

Thought this was interesting.

Received a Park Brake Malfunction Notification followed by a Yellow Park Light. Shortly after, I received a message that the Rear Brakes Needed Replacing in 2,200 miles.

I currently have 8,000 miles on the ODO and it's a 2020 530i. Anyone else experience this?

I have changed the rear brake pads at about 32k km. The front pads are still the original ones and I currently have around 46k km.

Very strange to change the rear ones at such a low mileage.

I agree. I wonder if the Park Brake Malfunction triggered something in the CBS about the Brakes
