Hello. I recently was told all my breaks needed replaced at a cost of $1,462 which included warrenty parts and charged for rotors and calipers. I went in because the brakes felt soft. After agreeing to that price and having the work done I was called by service stating that I now needed to replace the left front inner tie rod end at a cost of $842 ($99 for alignment) after they had done the break work and put everything back together. My feeling is that this is a bit high of a price to pay. Would love your feedback and advice. ---

$1462 sounds like a pretty high price for brakes and the fact that they want to sell you new calipers is a little fishy to me. One caliper may be bad…but all four. What are the warranty parts that they said you needed??? An inner tie rod may cost you over a hundred at a dealer, but not much, and the price for the alignment seems fair. I’d get a second opinion from an independent machanic…not a chain shop like Pep Boys or Sears. Ask around for recommendations from family, friends and co-workers and who evers shop is bragged about the most…make an appointment. I think you will save about 50%. Yosemite ---

The estimate does sounds quite excessive. ---

Offhand, it sounds a bit high but sometimes details can swing an opinion the other way. The price on the inner tie rod does sound like a bit much to me though. I’m struggling to see how they come up with almost 850 on one tie rod. Ouch. What kind of facility is this? ---

An auto parts store could tell you a price. So many phones are available for this purpose. They do more that text. ---

For $842 you could probably get a complete remanned rack installed, including parts, labor, alignment and tax But not at that shop, apparently 💫
