Lifespans and difficulty are general. They vary with the engine, trim, driving and climate, and your owner's manual and a qualified mechanic should have the final say.
Before you buy
Replace pads on both sides of the same axle together. Ceramic pads are usually quieter and cleaner; semi-metallic pads often bite harder and handle heat better. Pick up new hardware and check the rotors at the same time.
Confirm the part fits your exact 2024 GMC Terrain by checking your VIN, engine size and trim with the seller. The Terrain was sold with different options across the 2024 model year, and a part that fits one build may not fit another.
