Front brake repair costs?

summitracing.com never lets me down~

NAPA auto parts will sell you their house brand...good as anyone elses~ Echelin?~

I second the NAPA brand any day.....plus they are around the block if you need help..

Thank you, all, very much! There's a NAPA by my mother-in-law's but not on my daily commute route, so hadn't even thought to look there. Thanks for the recommendations. Checking out Summit Racing too. - Greg

Amen... not a religious guy....but it is Sunday~

I should have noted that my mechanic mentioned that it was safe to drive the truck, as is. The grinding will just sound annoying, but won't damage the truck nor impact braking. However, that being said, it's not something he recommended me driving around on for months upon months. But, not something that had to be fixed before I could leave their lot. Thanks again for the suggestions. It looks like I do have a local NAPA, a few miles to the right instead of left...who knew?! - Greg

yes...once the rotors are TOAST...what is gonna hurt them? burst into flame? they are gonna wait...'cause they will cost exactly the same now or later~

....actually Will impact braking in that will cause increased stopping distance~

The Thursday or Friday before Christmas, I took the truck into my mechanic. He called me, "Um...sir...I've never seen this before in a vehicle not in an accident, but, somehow the brake pad popped out of the shoe. It was sitting on the control arm. Your caliper pistons were what was stopping the truck." Now, the truck has new rotors, brake pads and calipers in the front. Rear brakes were good. This past weekend, I had the front end aligned and tires rotated, per my mechanic at NTB since his shoppe can't accommodate the 20" wheel / tire combination. So, all is good with the Avalanche, again. Many thanks for the tips and advice from the CarGurus team :)

Be thankful that you were not going 70 MPH on the freeway when the caliper went out and you lost all your break fluid, that means no breaks at all. crash time! Very dangerous driving with bad Breaks.no matter who told you what.
