Interesting, I'll have to tell him this. But either way, my point was that there is a problem and it needs to be addressed before someone or someone's property gets hurt. I simply offered to help. Just from talking with him, he and his family hadn't chaged the pads yet on a car that was over a decade old (Adults are idiots too occasionally). The pads need to be done whether they are causing this problem or not. Thanks for the tip.
