Took my '05 Frontier in to get the front brakes redone as they had started squeaking. Shop called and told me that during the vehicle inspection that they had found the right rear axle seal had leaked and ruined the brake pads too. What started as a $280 brake job ended up costing over $900. This was just the beginning of my spending way too much for what should have been "normal" up keep.
