Sunfire 2.2L

When you get your brakes changed GET THEM TO LUBE THE CALIPERS!!! Mine didn't have enough grease on them so when I lifted my foot off the brake petal the pads would still contact the rotors. This caused my brakes to wear out to the END OF THE BRAKE PAD after 40000km. If I didn't change them I would have truly been screwed.
