I don't think that there is any electronic notification. I used to rely on the built in sensors on the pads that give the obnoxious squeal sound. I didn't have the sensors on my last few sets of pads (different truck), maybe they did away with it altogether? I rely on my 5K rotation and balance and insist they check the pads.
Otherwise I wait to hear the excruciating sound....Grind of metal on metal

You need to check it yourself. You can generally run them down to 1mm thick before replacing the pad. If it looks worn down, replace them since you'll have to do it sooner or later.
