Where in Los Angeles should I take my Toyota to get the breaks replaced?
They rip you off when you say “Breaks”. This is what you do at school or work. But “Brakes” are what stops your car. Most big box brake shops will rip you off. Ask around town for a local mechanic, not in a dealership, that other people use. Most brake problems are simple and cheap to fix. But Brake-O, Just Brakes, and other similar national chains that claim $99 specials for all around, are just a bait and switch scam where the prices suddenly go up to $700 when they get suckers in the door. I have an advantage of knowing how to fix my own. Here’s a tip. Look for Better Business Bureau members and complaints before you use them. This can be done online from anywhere. You can also check with your local Chamber of Commerce in your county. They usually have a huge list of members in your area. Some charge a fee of around $25 to provide the list to the public. http://www.bbb.
