Brake Grinding Noise Problems of Land Rover Range Rover

On January 3, 2014 (Friday) my young daughter and I were on way to the airport to pick up my son. We were on 110 fwy when suddenly a warning "warning - brake pads worn" came on and disappeared quickly. I was skeptical, but I had to go and pick up my son. Brakes seemed to work ok. I drove extremely slow in slow lane. On our way back home, the car started to make loud metal grinding noise every time I braked. I asked my boyfriend, art, to call pasadena Land Rover to ask if I should have the car towed. We were told to bring the car on Saturday morning. We took the car in Saturday morning to Land Rover dealer. I was advised that not only all the brake pads were bad, I had to replace the rotor. I ended up paying $1,679. 99. Due to insufficient and inadequate warning, not only it put my children and myself in danger, caused additional unnecessary expenses. I contacted Land Rover customer service and filed a complaint. Despite leaving messages, we have not been able to speak to anyone. I am extremely concerned. What if we were on a long trip on freeway and brakes fail. When and how will I know if brake pads are going bad.

While driving at any speed, and applying the brakes they go half way to the floorboard, and there is a grinding noise. Dealer can't determine the caus eof the problem.
