| - Well, jumped the gun on that last review I guess.
Turns out, the work they did here was botched. I'm not sure if I'm influenced by the good and helpful attitude of the guy who helped me here or not, but I'd like to think it was some sort of mistake. Still, a costly one for me.
I had gone in with what sounded like worn brake pads to the point of metal-on-metal rotor scraping, and thought I would need new rotors. After checking it out, the aforementioned "good guy" told me the rotors were fine and simply installed brake pads and cleaned the back brakes.
A week later, I started hearing the noise again. I took it to another shop (Larry Harker's Auto) and they found that the rotors were not in good shape, and that in fact one was much thinner than the other. After they replaced them, the noise vanished and has not come back.
Like I said, I want to believe this guy just made an honest mistake; it just seems like an unlikely scenario, though, given the problem. Just kind of goes to show that smaller shops with a long history in the area are usually the way to go.
