I'm coming to a stop tonight at about 3am, with the radio off.. i'm hearing a GRINDING from the back of my car, right towards the end of the stop. it's a light grinding, you can't hear it with the radio on. I had this done about 2-3 days ago and I just noticed it.
They screwed this up bad. I just now checked the bill (I was in a rush, to get them done) and they apparently billed me to bleed an ABS system. That's great, if my ST had ABS. I'm takin the bitch back tomorrow and getting my cash back. anyone else here had a bad experience with firestone? This post has been edited by sinner96ST: May 13, 2004 - 4:15 AM |

Well, I took it to toyota, and here's what they told me :
The "aftermarket" parts they had put on my braking system were causing this grinding noise. It's gonna cost me $230 per axle to repair. Otherwise, the brakes are fine.. 75% all the way around. Don't go to firestone, period. They didn't even have to look at my car, and they refunded my money. I just walked in there, told them whats up, and he's like "here ya go, $190 bucks." |
