FRONT BRAKEs.. pads with still over 80% after 50+k

Hello All, so my maintenance minder shows up and says front brakes need maintenance.

then i took a good look and my front brakes still have 80%+ on the pads. WTF... why is is showing up already if i have that much left...

about 3-4 months ago my car was in service due to this issue. but the dealer said that no need to replace it cause you have about 90% thread left... then he says... "do you use brake" cause for 50k miles on the car thats a lot left... "

The brake was never replaced once in owning the car...

also my rear has about 50% left. am i missing something not sure if i should just reset the minder which is pretty easy to do. i can take a shot at lunch time and post it here... not sure why i have so much front brake pads left after 50+k miles on the car..

oh one more thing... car is out of warranty. so i do everything myself. at 50k i have done all the maintenance required. well the maintenance that shows up anyways.
