Why the heck would i have only 1 completely worn down pad and all the rest have about 15% left on them? it was drivers side inside pad...??? it was worn flat down to what look like rivets on the pad and there is absolutely no material left, had one hell of a time removing the rotor because the pad stuck to it LOL

either way, cars got 68xxx km and they were factory brakes... not bad IMO for how i drive... (i drive my car really hard as most us likely do)

Make sure the calipers are not seized on the slider pins. This is probably the most common cause of uneven pad wear.
