My daughter has a 2015 Kia Sorento, she told me she needs new brakes and rotors, how much should that job cost? She was quoted $900, I do not know, but I thought that seemed pretty high.


I got myself a seniors' GPS.
Not only does it tell me how to get to my destination,
it tells me why I wanted to go there.

Yikes!!

That has to be a dealer. All 4 wheels for just lining and new rotors shouldn't be half that.

New all four corners?

That could be a few hundred in just parts but unless your daughter has been ignoring the screeching and scrubbing for awhile it would be highly unusual to need all four at the same time.

Much more common is for them wear in pairs front and back.

Needing rotors tells me three possibilities. She did ignore the screeching and they are grooved beyond the point of being turned. She has been fastidious in maintaining her brakes turning the rotors each time as she should and they have reached the end of their service life. The mechanic is to lazy sorry to know how to turn a rotor and is a parts swapper on her dime.

Rock auto has rotors from $25 each to over $100
Say you buy the ones I would that would be $160
So add brakes another $60
Labor $250

My price for you would be $470

Not a hard job

My daughter got a quote from the honda dealer in Ottawa-1800 for a brake job.
I went to see Mitch at the garage in town-He quoted 400 for a brake job on the honda,lol.
Great to have a local mechanic in the community.

That's about what I figured as well but didn't look up cost of the rotors or pads.

Many rotors can be bought new for about the same as having one turned. That would be my only consideration whether to buy new or not.

I turn/ resurface the rotors unless they're rusty or scored too deep. 15 dollars a pair.

Everything is double now, but no inflation. Roof jobs are now $400+ a square in NY. I could go on and on but that is the new world according to Joe.

Dealers will rape you without lube.
A local honest mechanic is golden. Keep asking people until you find one.
I do my own stuff.

It's better to work on your truck instead of taking into a garage unless your lazy and rich!.

new pads and rotors are not difficult to do yourself. if you are unable i would call around. 500 bucks ought to cover it. if you need more than that it would explain the price quoted
