So, we did the rear brakes in my daughter's Grand Prix ...

And look what we found 

[mauve66]

alot of them made in mexico........................... cali says that brake dust causes cancer so they ship it all down there, cancer not going up in mexico though so i guess cali is wrong AGAIN AND AGAIN AND AGAIN

[jb666]

That's not it... The pad's upside down

  Well, except for the part about it looks like it probably chewed up the rotor hat somewhat and you'll probably have to replace that too. 

  I suppose if you knew the place that did that job it would go on the shops to avoid list.   Check the glove box for old receipts

We did rear rotors and pads. Funny stuff hut speedy did this work last year, before we bought it.

I wonder how dumb nut even got it on there!? Disc brakes are so easy to work on, you really have to be retarded to do it wrong. Of course some people are never meant to be working on cars, they're pencil pushers

Wow, Chuck was right, it really is hot in Vegas today!

It probably worked just fine too. So were they all backward or just that one pad?

I think someone from B-K had a hand in that!!!

You know, when I first seen the photo, that was the #1 thing that came to my mind too!   

[Todd Wilson]

That looks like something the dumb F's at Sears or Wal Mart would do............

Ya, except you can see part of the pad is not even contacting rotor surface

[jb666]

Just that one side... It was just something I had never seen before.. And after the whole BK fiasco, I thought I had seen it all

Well, it was probably an honest mistake then instead of the work of a total knob.

[1969chargerrtse]

That is just dumb.  I noticed right away.
