If I have any problems within 30 days bring it back to them. Not even * weeks my brakes go out again. I got it towed to them and now they want to charge me about $* to get a new brake hose and bleed the brakes. When this should I have been done when I paid $*,*.* and they expected everything like they told me. I got paperwork saying that they expected all of the brakes in the front for them to tell me that they didn't touch the front. They only did the drums. The brake inspection should have came with all of it when I paid $*,*.*. I shouldn't have to bring my vehicle back for them to do. I have to pay another $* for something that should have been done the first time?
