Typically when brakes are dangerously low there are some signs of an issue.... Most noticeably being the loud screeching or grinding sounds when you press the brake pedal along with some possible pulsation felt in the brake pedal. There may also be diminished stopping power compared to new.
Brake life really vary's on route, driver and how hard and fast you use them. With that said i would expect most people to easily get 40,000 miles or more. I had 95,000 miles on my cruze and still had all the original brakes, and the pads looked about 3/4 thickness of new.
