Grit, that's insane. I took my truck into Schwab in 4 Corners last month (maybe the same one you did). My truck shook like a wet dog and pulled to the right when I hit the brakes, and they just turned the rotors and it drives good now. They said pads were at 8mm so no need to touch them. Four new tires mounted and rotors turned for about $1100.
That is ridiculous! That's the shop I took it to. Didn't even have real issues but been hearing 1 brake hitting the indicator squeaker. The way I use the truck I'm surprised the pads lasted 70k miles.
Guess maybe I got the Tuesday sucker deal? Figgered he'd back off of that when I called bullchit on it. And I'm sure my name is in the 'puter for about 50 different trucks and service calls.
Eh, whatever. Time to find a better tire shop apparently. I forgave them for arguing about balancing trailer tires with me. They said trailer wheels don't need balanced....lol. That was in Covington. But they balanced them for free after the fact, so that was cool.
