Can someone estimate this for me.
needs a new passenger side (RH?) parking brake cable.
I Think it was damaged in accident and they never fixed it.
It was at the dealer for 2 recalls so they generously told me it was bent
and charged me 175 when I didnt want to pay them 700$+ to fix it.
WE GOTTA PAY OUR TECHS.. uh looking up when its on the lift hardly seems like it requires 175$?
And they were doing a brake inspection for "free" anyway?
I did tell them I noticed only one wheel was locking up when parking brake was applied.
I mean how do you tell only 1 parking brake is locking up? Well i noticed it during a tire rotation.
Looks like the part runs $92-$130 for oem part
Am I wrong in thinking this is a 1-2 hour job? 500+ for labor??
Anyone know a reliable place in NE ohio Akron, canton, kent area?
At this point I dont even care if the repair costs 500$ but I dont want to feel like I got it with no lube at the dealer.
