1 Brake Drum problem

Failure Date: 10/18/2000

While I was getting my oil changed and tires rotated, the mechanic told me that my rear drum brakes did not function properly. The mechanic at precision tune in encinitas, CA, mentioned that he would need to replace the drum brake components. Because brake fluid leaked and rusted the insides of the the brakes, he also did mention that my right rear tire did not spin as it was suppouse to spin due to damage in the drum brake. While showing me the insides of my brakes, he mentioned that my car was also leaking brake fluid. Since my drum brakes do not function properly, the drum brakes distort my front disc brakes from making my car stop normally. Therefore not only putting my life in danger, but also putting my families and friends lifes in danger.
