    Best thing is to just inspect them...

    First step in diagnosing a problem is always a visual inspection:nice:

    I have what sounds to be an identical problem, but I'm at 44k.

    Check the brakes...especially the rear calipers. If one of the caliper slide pins seizes it will cause only one side to press against the rotor. It will wear one pad down in less than 10K miles.
