Rear Drum Brakes

[brsexton]

Ok so my car has 30k on it. So I decided I would take it to the dealer for a few maintenance items and a state inspection. I ask them to adjust my rear brakes and parking brake because it felt as if it was not holding as well. I got my car back this evening and the brakes feel WAY better. I don't know why, but my car stops much better then it did. The brake pedal don't go as far down. Plus the parking brake now works GOOD with 4 clicks. Before, I would pull it as far as I could and I could still back out of the driveway. I don't know how my brakes could have gotten out of adjustment that bad in 30k, but I am very happy I had them checked. I think they must have not been adjust even when the car was new. They brakes work better now then they ever have. I also hope this takes some heat off my front because I just replaced those and the rotors 3500 miles ago.
