Read my prior response: http://www.saabnet.com/tsn/bb/9-3/index.html?bID=30996
Even the independent SAAB service shop mechanic said that he would have to remove the tire to see if the rotors need to be replaced. AGAIN, he was not going to do that unless he was doing the "brake job".......am I supposed to be a gullible idiot and open myself up to paying anywhere from $190 to $400 for a "brake job"?
If he was so thorough and "customer focused" (as he stated), then he should be willing to take the time to do so. At the SAAB dealer, if I would have requested them to take the tire off for a full visual inspection, there would have been no issue....they would of done it. The independent lost a customer as a result. Had the brake pads changed at the dealer. When I picked up the car, I asked if my rotors needed to be replaced and the mechanic who did the work said no......AND offered to put the car on the rack to show me (which would have included taking off the two front tires). Hell even MIDAS does that.
