I purchased a 2003 Toyota 4 Runner on 12/02/2006.
Every since I drove the truck off the dealer lot I have had problems . The biggest problem is my brakes. When I purchased the vehicle it had about 53,000 miles on it now it has about 62,000. I took it to a reputable repair shop to have the brakes looked at because they started making a grinding sound and they told me the price would be $2,200 because
the calipers were sticking, they were leaking fluid, the pads were almost totally worn that the rotors were being scratched.After I picked myself up off the floor the repairman told me that he would research the internet for some better deals. The price he came back was $1,100.Does this pricing sound correct and is there any websites I could go on to get coupons myself? Also I did purchase an Extended care plan on my Truck from the dealer could this help?

Thanks :shock:

Couldn't hurt to call about the plan, there are many different ones out there, so I can't say! It seems strange that the shop cut the price in half tho...is this for all 4 or just the front?
