I had my 2006 Honda Pilot serviced at an authorized Honda dealership and was told that my brake pads needed replacement and was quoted $325. I opted not to have it replaced by them as I remembered hearing over the radio Just Brakes' advertisement about their $99 brake replacement deal. So I went ahead and had my brake pads replaced at Just Brakes. I was told it will take 4 hours to finish so I had my wife pick me up and went home. After an hour, I got a call from them telling me that some other parts need to be replaced and that it would cost me another $500, and if i did not have it replaced they will not be responsible for any accident that might happen due to the defective part, and there is no telling when will it happen. They even told me that it is possible that right after I drive out of their shop I could be in an accident because of it. I argued that I was just at the Honda service center and they did not tell me of any defects aside from my pads needing replacement. Just brakes told me Honda missed it. This is a clear case of bait and switch. I wouldn't be surprised if majority of those who had the $99 deal from JUST BRAKES ended up paying more than double. May this serve as a warning to those who are planning to have the $99 deal SCAM of JUST BRAKES.
