2016 RDX CPO - Brake Concern. Should I buy?

I am in the process of purchasing a 2016 RDX advance. The CPO report indicates the following regarding the brakes:

The left front brake pad is 6 mm
The right front brake rotor is 24 mm

The left rear brake pad is 7 mm

The left rear brake rotor is 8 mm

The right rear brake pad is 7 mm

The right rear brake rotor is 8 mm

Do these numbers indicate that the brakes need to be replaced soon????

Pad thickness' look fine to me...the rotor however is probably at or below minimum. Were it me...I would negotiate new rotors and pads all the way around.

Pads look fine, but those rotor numbers cannot be correct. But regardless, it's a CPO, so it's all covered under warranty is it not?

CPO is another name for used. IF you have any doubts about the brakes you should probably take care of it BEFORE buying as it will be difficult getting anything done at their expense once you are the owner.
