2010 civic premature front brake wear 3 times

I picked up my 2010 Civic last fall 2018 and my mechanic replaced one set of brakes last winter 2019 after that first set failed. I brought it back and he replaced the calipers on the front along with new pads and rotors again the brakes pulsated. A couple months later. I thought he may have got bad batch from Napa. I'm pretty handy myself so about a month ago or two in April 2019 and I went and purchased the best rotors and ceramic pads I could find and installed them properly grease everything and about a month or two later the rotors are pulsating again. I might add I do Thruway driving about 95 miles per day and don't touch the brakes a lot other than to get to get off the Thruway or to slow down when I'm getting off. Im trying to get to the bottom of this problem so I don't have to keep replacing brakes and rotors. I've had numerous Honda Civics and never had an issue like this because I drive 30000 miles a year for work. I may mention that this car had a light front driver side Collision long before I purchased it where I think the fender was replaced can someone give me some insight thank you Craig

When you change the pads and rotors are you servicing the calipers? Hub surface is clean, no rust build up?

Are you doing the pad bedding procedure after install? Not doing this can cause premature wear.
