Re: Pep Boys for brake job?
Don't know how it is where you are, but Pep Boys does my brakes (with
Raybestos pads) for free after I got them done the first time...and
with a smile!! My TJ eats brakes like candy and I get a new set every
12-13 months. Haven't paid in 3 years... They also have good deals on
Optima batteries in the fall. I'd do business with them, although
maybe it's location-by-location.
