new brakes or some bs upsell? - Toyota Yaris Forums

scene · 02-11-2012, 07:53 PM

since the yaris is front wheel drive how come the brakes in the rear are more worn down than the front? Are the rear brakes less thick than the front? yea i was really skeptical of taking my car to the dealership at first but my dealership is really good at taking care of their customers except for that fact they can get really busy (1-2 hour expected wait for simple jobs!).

When I was in an accident a few years ago with another car, we got a quote from them as a baseline and used that to compare with other shops. The quote we got from toyota matched the shops in my area with the exception of a couple of shops beating toyota by margins.
