306 Medina Auto Center, Ltd. Bogus brake repai

On Dec. 31, I was driving 2 hours to Medina to buy a truck when my brakes went spongy. I bought some fluid, put it in, it went right through. Brake line busted.

I eventually got the car, a 2004 Chevy Impala, which had all of it rotors and pads replace within the last 2 years, to the Medina Midas shop. They called Jan. 2 with an estimate of $2100.00 to fix it. It would need a new master cylinder, all new lines, new hoses, new calipers, new pads, and new rotors.

Out of town customer, they had me.

I told them I'd be in to pick the car up. I went there with my car hauler, (I'm a farmer), and picked up the Chevy. They gave me a 'revised' estimate of $1765.63 in writing. We took it home and found what I suspected, the left rear brake line had rusted through. Cost -$5.99 in parts.

Since we had it down, we replaced all the brake lines ourselves - $55.00 in parts. The hoses, cylinder, calipers, pads and rotors were all fine. You could even see that without taking the tires off.

Cheats. The man should be run out of business.
