Since 2017 pads and rotors are not covered by free maintenance program. More, if brake wear sensors were intact, dealer will not replace pads. Overheated calipers turning green/black will not be covered and may be flagged by dealer, too.
P.S. Just for the reference, I have 19" x9/10 OZ Hyper HLT wheels with RE-71R 265/35 and 285/35 tires and Pagid RSL29 pads for the track.
