Sound signals are received by a plurality of microphones disposed on a top of an ADV. An analysis of the sound signals is performed based on a spectrum and a vibration intensity of the sound signals. A wheel which the sound signals come from and a thickness of a brake pad of the wheel is determine based on the analysis of the sound signals. A brake pad wear degree of the brake pad and how long the ADV can run with the brake pad within a safety range is determined. A warning message indicating warning information based on the brake pad wear degree is transmitted.
