Brake Job cost for a 2012 Camry LE- Suggestions needed.
I need to get my front and rear brakes replaced (pads and rotors) as well as change the brake fluid on my 2012 Camry LE with 216K on it and was trying to get an idea of what is a fair price to do this.
I usually take the vehicle in to the Dealership and use OEM parts and was trying to get an idea of what going to other mechanics would cost.
- Midas Muffler quoted $1200 to $1500 for brakes + fluid changes and other things which seems high.
- Another repair shop quoted $900 using "First Line" brake parts (never heard of this brand)
- My local dealer charged me around $1120 tax in. for my 2014 Camry last year (pads/rotors/brake fluid, taxes in.)
The last inspection/brake service (cleaning) I did was about 20K ago and the pads front/back were about 5mm. Front rotors and pads were replaced over 5 years/100K ago and rear pads were replaced over 4 years/84K ago. The rear rotors have never been changed.
For someone who has no tools, or the ability to change the brakes, what is considered a fair price? Also, any suggestions on where to go from people who accept Credit Card. I want to get quiet, good quality parts and not looking for the cheapest option.
Thanks
