Replacing the brake pads is one of the easiest things you can do.

Tools needed are Lug wrench from the spare to remove the tire, and a screw driver
to carefully push the pads away from the rotor, and needle nose pliers to remove the pins that holds the brake pad retainers off.

Once the wheel is off its probably 10 minutes or less to replace the brake pads.

If they are worn down to the brake sensors you may need to replace them as well. which adds maybe 1 or 2 minutes to the task.

So easy your 12 year old could do it!!!!
