I saw sparks comming from the tire as I tried to drive to work in it. So I came back home & took it to the closest mech, & this is what we saw when the drum was pulled off!!

I was told its for the emergency break & to keep the 2 side springs apart in the hooks! It fits under the cylinder boast.

Whoa is that really $143 or $193 Or $173 ? lol whichever one they screwed you! "If it ain't broke don't fix it" sounds like you was trying to replace something that you didn't need to.

That's not that bad, most shops are $100 an hour minimum. So you got parts, labor, diagnosis and the shop has to make a buck so not that bad. I thought it was some sort of a big rip off or something.

This. You didn't get fucked, you just paid someone to do work on your car. If you're hard up for money, you should have done it yourself. Brakes are like the easiest job in the world to learn to do.

Cmon now we know shops should only charge like $20 for something like that, not a penny more, you've been raped, I hoped they at least used lube, you may be able to press charges.

Hi, my name is Jimmy Herrera aka 91Trunkster (510)375-1589 and I got snitched out by my friend or friends. Ain't that a bitch, some one or some people would rat out my fake account here to keep their own secret fake account? If you all forgot, I'm an old ass 30 something year old "man" that likes to make internet friends with boys fresh out of highschool. I like to post "bruh" a lot just like the annoying immature and ghetto CAFords kids do. I like to talk shit about this website, make it look bad, all the while trying to make and save money off of other members here. Some may call me a selfish immature bitch. Deep down I know they are correct, it's not like I have anything else going on in my life or anything but negativity to offer this community. This is a free site. Suckers spend good time and money to keep this website going. They're suckers for doing so, so fuck them, I'm going to take them for all they got. It's all about me in this world.
Who is the next troll or just plain annoying post whore to get the boot???

HAHA, maybe in Tijuana. I'd like to see a shop stay in business for $20.00 and not a penny more, lol. ![[worship]](graemlins/worship.gif)

LoL me hard up for money? Not lol I guess you missed the whole point!! I was in a bind in San jose no tools available so I just dipped in this shop & 7 hrs later this is what I got for 11 min of work that was my point. I paid it & drove off but still felt wow I got hit. If I would of new that this was it I could of pulled this piece out & kept going but It was sparking in the drum & with no tools I didnt know what happened! Just seemed like a lot for what they did!! They had a full service brake special for $75 so I almost paid double & didnt get new breaks!! Thats the point fellas!! Wow u have to love CAfords for jumping in & throwing out BS most of the time.
