Slapuhho Posted September 15, 2009 Report Share Posted September 15, 2009 Well, I bought my car used last year, She was the owner of the car company I bought it from. I thought that since it was the owner of the car dealership and worked with cars that she would be able to drive somewhat good. But........I was wrong. Last week I noticed this squeeling sound when I braked. Today I took my car in to that same dealership to find out that my cars Brakes are COMPLETELY ANNIHILATED. In case you were wondering, I do not brake hard at all. So Now I have to get new routers and pads for each wheel. yay! Say goodbye to about 2 months of paychecks. I'm quite angry that this lady fucked up a brand new cars breaks in about 2 years. But on the positive note it will be all finished tomorrow and I don't have to worry about any brake problems for winter. But paying for this is going to suck. And Treo, I know you work for GM, what do you estimate on price, and anyone else, How much do you think it will be. Sorry for my Rant, but jeez. Stupid lady. PS: The mechanic was very nice and he was in aw at all the equipment I had in my car, he was like,"man that's a lot of shit". lol Quote 4 18's, low power and lots of gay fur.

Beanz Posted September 15, 2009 Report Share Posted September 15, 2009 what car you got? Quote That's why they don't deliver. Yer ass better go sit along the side of the road and wait. You can't expect them to travel up some dirt road in a hick / back woods town. Thats how horror movies start I explain things very simply and use analogies in terms of Pickles, and grape drink, pool noodles and jackhammers...if you can't put 2 and 2 together there man, There simply is not much more I can do.

CaptainzPlanetz Posted September 15, 2009 Report Share Posted September 15, 2009 At the dealer ship where I work, just the pads kit and R&R run about 150 or so on average, so add the Rotors which are another 60 bucks or so, and R&R and you are looking at about around 300 or so. Yes and Labor is expensive 80 bucks an hour flat rate. Quote ¿ǝɯɐƃ ǝɥʇ Trolls never learn............ All BS aside, If I see one more comment in here that is NOT about the pre-sale, I will start the vacations. And that includes the trolls feeding the trolls.

Coolwazabi Posted September 20, 2009 Report Share Posted September 20, 2009 did you actually check the rotors ?? or just go by what the grease monkey told you ?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wildbeast15 Posted September 20, 2009 Report Share Posted September 20, 2009 if it shakes when u brake at all u need knew rotors... they cant fix a wobble thats tiny and u will never be able to tell by looking at the rotors... not even resurfacing will fix it.. Quote The set up your talking about would sound great in my Tahoe. Trade you my dog for it. He has one eye but that only makes for bad depth perception so hey so what if he is running into shit, look at it this way he is easy to sneak up ninja style on.
