Pads $11-15 both front.
Rotors if needed 15-25 each.
Rear shoes & springs usually around $30
So total brakes, $90 at absolute most if you have the tools and didn't damage anything else.

What is the $1400 for?

where the hell did you come from? thanks though.

i plan on getting the dealer's write-up sheet, buying the parts, and taking the turd to a mechanically inclined family friend.

as far as the bullshit $1,400 estimate, hell i don't know. i need a new catalytic converter, and a bunch o' other shit. their converter costs $700, even though i've found some for around $200.

do i know you?

No, you don't know me. I just hate to see people pay $1900 on repairs, especially if they still owe money on it. I could buy a car that barely runs and make it work like new for little over half that much...
