Unethical local shop (just my ranting)
 

This weekend I have been repairing the brakes on my mothers Dodge Durango. Since I picked it up from her house, leaving my daily car, and then drove it directly to my shop - there was only my 911 to get around in. I thought nothing of this.

Anyway, I pulled both rotors and went to the local garage to have them turned. He advertises $10 each to turn rotors. As I walk in, rotors in hand, he says "it'll be extra to turn rotors for that car."

I just kinda laughed "haha" at what I thought was just redneck humor. He said "No, really." I turned right around and left, mumbling something about going elsewhere. I really didn't need his BS and didn't have time to stand there and debate about it.

I guess it didn't occur to him that I couldn't have the rotors off and be driving the car.

Went up the road a mile and got them turned for $10 each by a guy who was very enamoured with my car.

when I got my rotors turned they didn't cost any more but it took them awhile to find the right bolt pattern or something.

Talk to the local DA about false advertising. I know its not much but dammit when they say $10 for turning, it should cost $10 unless exceptions are noted on the advert.

i found a nice little local napa with a machine shop after dealing with crappy other places....
prices are a little higher ($15 per rotor compared to $10) but they usually get everything done within 2 hours, they thought it was funny when i took in my nissan truck rotors for resurfacing while driving the 911......but no extra $$ :D

cash, lucky you weren't wearing a rolex when you arrived or there would have been an extra charge for that too.

Unless it was fake.

Not that there is anything wrong with that....

HEY...!! I'll have you know that my watch is a GENUINE Rolox!!
