I have a 2002 Olds Alero that has over thirty five thousand miles on the brake pads. And I think it is time to get them replaced. Does anyone know if Firestone is a good auto repair shop for this type of work? Or have you had a bad experience with Firestone?

you do not could pay dealership expenses for commonly used maintenance maintenance like a easy brake job. verify a number of the coupons interior the mail and paper. i'm many times finding that $one hundred could conceal the front brakes on an Accord (I even have one myself). pay attention of Brake-O as they have a foul rep. in many factors of the rustic. in case you have not had your brake fluid replaced at present (final 30k) this may be nicely worth it an slightly greater funds. some interior of sight Firestone, Goodyear, Pepboys, Meinke, and so on. can do powerful artwork for you. sturdy success!

Please call around and insist on AC Del co ceramic brake pads. If rotors are needed don't fall for off-chore brake rotors. Ask for American, Canadian, or British cast iron rotors. AC Del co, Wagner, Or ENC (British) brand. If you go to an independent mechanic you can deal with him asking for these parts.
Wish you were hear to learn how it's done. It's so easy it's embarrassing.
E-mail if you want to learn how to do this and I'll walk you through every step of the way.

They can do the job, but be prepared to buy more than just brake pads. They will find something else wrong, either tires, alignment, or other brake components ---watch!
