This car is driven every couple of weeks. Mechanic said break pads need to be changed. I was Surprised. They said if car sits idle there is more chance of pads going bad. Is it true?

That is true..if your vehicle sits idle for days or weeks at a time, there is a strong likelihood you will suffer premature brake wear due to corrosion.
