    Working on a customer car this morning, she brought it in because the brakes were making a bad grinding noise. said she had new brakes put on by a shop in the twin cities over the weekend but wanted me to check them. They said the grinding noise would go away after they were broke in. I pull a wheel off and go WTF. She paid like $200 for pads and 2 rotors on a 02 sebring. Well she is paying for another rotor because them idiots put the outer pad on backwards on one wheel. metal side to the pad, wtf. You think a competent mechanic would notice the mistake.

      That isn't how it's supposed to be? Looks normal to me.

      At first I did it for fun, then I realized I made the investment and had to do it!

                Just flip the pad over. The rotor will smooth out eventually. lol
