Hi All:
I took my car for brake service for my 98 Isuzu Rodeo 2WD. I asked about
for the front wheel with disc brake. The mechanic told me since it is a 2WD.
It requires to take out the bearing to re-surface the rotor. He said it is a
must to re-surface the rotor, otherwise the new pad won't fit with the rotor
and cause vibration. Then the price from orginailly quoted $120 becomes
$240. Get double. I won't it everthing he said is correct. Wonder how much
it will cost to do the re-surface for the rotor and replace pad in the
fremont california area? Besides, it is a must to re-surface the rotor for
new brake pad. If not, how much should it be? He said he won't warranty if I
don't re-surface to rotor. Is it true it is a must? He makes me
uncomfortable with the their service, but nothing else I can do except
asking for expert comment.

Thanks
