Newbe here... inherited daughters car when she left for school (complete with payment book!!).. and took it down to have the brakes checked today. (Learned from my lurking that they're basically junk on these cars!! <_< ).
Shop said figure rotors all around.. and $240 ish an end... no real surprise there, but is there anything special about doing them? Used to do this on OLDER vehicles, but not certain about these new 'puter rascals.
BUT.. they also said a rear spring was chipped/broke and was luck it didn't break and hit a tire. Is this something that frequently happens with these Alero's?
It appears a number of folks have put lowering kits on 'em, but i'm not sure that'd be the right answer here in the land of snow & ice.
Suggestions? Comments?
TIA
