All I can say is "that's life". My Ford gave me fits with the rear calipers seizing up last year. I was stuck in Philadelphia, PA, on a Sunday and could go no further. I found that Pep Boys were open and limped in. Five hours & $1,150 later I was on my way. I consider myself lucky they were open and could locate the parts. I had to settle for NEW calipers at $258 each as opposed to rebuilt for $89 each. Pad and rotors were new as they should be. Labor killed me. They even charged $108 to bleed the brakes! When I worked in a garage bleeding the brakes was part of the job, no extra charge. But I was at their mercy.....and they did get me on my way. At my local guy it would have cost me half that, or less. And if my back was better I would have done it myself. This getting old stuff sucks
