Some shops are so full of Sh!t !!!

Post by professor »

So I'm hearing my rear brake "squealer" telling me the rear pads are shot. I know the fronts suck, with one starting to deteriorate (its not wiping the whole disk, I can see that through the wheel), and the front rotors are warped

So I look through the receipts I got from the previous owner, I thought it got new front rotors and pads recently, and there it is, part of a $1100 service call : new clutch, new front rotors, new front pads, other misc stuff, @ 172,000 miles

its bullcrap, the front rotors are old, old, old, with a large worn lip, I bet they are close to 100,000 miles old.

Shops that rip off chicks really suck. The charges were close to $400 for the front brakes, and it looks like they didn't even touch them, maybe they put new pads onto old rotors, and didn't even turn them.

I think I should call and harass them, I'd do it in person if the shop wasn't in Reno.

Wow, 400 bucks?

We do pads, & resurface for half that. And I thought we were expensive?

the bill showed charges for NEW rotors, which clearly was not done
