Description of the problem | Been a not so proud owner of a audi a4 2004 , and having a number of documents issues with my call and receiving poor service from my local dealer. At approximately 3000 miles before my warranty expired the front brakes starts to make grinding nose after taking to the dealer the dealer informed me that the brakes needed to be replaced including the routers (which by the way they never replaced under the maintenance despite the fact i requested them to check my brakes every time i took the car for service and they kept telling my the brakes were good). At this time they informed me that i had to pay $320. 00 to have my brakes replaced. What i don't understand is my did the dealer waited for the router to the full damaged before replacing them. |
