I am not for one minute accusing any Honda garage, however, as a comparison, some years ago I had a Citroen Xantia.

I was told at the first service (10k) that my front pads were 70% or 80% worn, can't remember the exact figure. I told them that I would wait a short while as I didn't have the funds available and I would use up the remaining % a while.

One year later (being as the pad warning light had not come on) at the second service they reported the front pads 60% worn!

I would check for yourself if unsure. Mainly motorway driving should return about 30k to 40k in my book, even though the pads no longer have asbestos in them.
