Acura Wheel Alignment and Brake Pads/Rotor story

So my Acura TL visited the dealer to do

• Diagnose and replace RF Tie Rod - done, about $200
• Wheel Alignment - done at $99+tax
• They found my brake rotors rusty, brake pads worn, again (they just did a regular maintenance in July, 4 months ago and didn't recommend replacing). Now they recommended me to replace them at dealer for ...wait for it... $1200 + tax!! No thanks to 3 hrs/$330 labour and $800 parts

Then I called to this Chinese mechanic whom I never used, but I've met his wife and son in Tzu Chi chinese school in Mississauga. Small world isn't it... Andy lives in Oakville and commutes to Kitchener to work!

All I need to say is look at the prices below, how fair, and all parts were Premium parts
Now my car is all good, no noise or shakes when braking, for half price.

Front Pads (Pro) $58.8

Rear Pads (Pro) $46.89

Front Rotors (Raybestos Pro) $62.42 x 2

Rear Rotors (Raybestos Pro) $54.34 x 2

Labour $120 (he spent 1~2 hours on it)

+ tax = $518.91 total

I probably won't visit the dealer again, especially with their super long shuttle waits (twice in a week I waited hours for shuttle)

歷史的今天 - 人間菩薩招生 假如沒有過去鋪這一條路走過來 要如何接引別人進來呢

人間菩薩招生
假如沒有過去鋪這一條路走過來
要如何接引別人進來呢

上人開示，「如果不知道過去，又怎麼能延續在未來呢？所以天天的歷史，天天慈濟所走過、舖過的路，都應該要時時和新進的志工做分享，哪怕是舊法，其實都是人生最珍貴的歷史！」

曾有人問　什麼是功德
證嚴上人說
給寒冷的人一件衣裳
給飢餓的人一碗米飯
就是功德
願您將善心　化作行動
一起來做
功德圓滿　福慧雙修之人

我也希望 以後能夠接引更多的菩薩 加入慈善的行列！
