Driving with brakes that do not function properly can, of course, lead to dangerous situations on the road. You should always replace either both the front pads, both the rear pads or all the pads together to ensure balanced brakes.

For brake pads a technician may say that the brake pads need replacing when you still have 50% of the pads left.

Ultimately, cost depends on your location, car and what parts your car's manufacturer recommends using for the replacement.
