I have a 2001 Nissan Frontier Pickup 2.4 ltr 4 cyl engine. Auto tran with 78,000 miles.
I had just picked my truck up from the dealer repair center after an accident in july. The entire frontend suspension system was replaced with a good amount of body work to the left front,but I was advised to get a brake job FAST.
I take the car to a Midas brake shop today. The manager tells me i need new brake pads, and rotors on both sides. He showed me the grooves and it wasn't pretty. So 500 dollars and five hours later I have new pads and rotors. He then proceeds to inform me that the dealership goofed on my repair and installed the wrong spindle . He said it was too small in diameter and causing too much freeplay with the bearings. He said it was safe to drive home and to take it to the dealership tommorow morning and demand that they give me the correct parts at no cost or labor.
I am still hearing grinding from the front left brake. I smells like metal. What can i do? Help.
