Why the sudden purchase?
We put our Prizm in for regular service. The brake light was flickering on sometimes, but no noises or brake problems. So we figured it just needed adjusting.
Rear Drums shot, Front Caliper Pistons shot. $1200 estimate.
Gulp!
We had recently decided that both cars were old enough and needing major repairs, that if a repair crossed the $1K mark, we'd consider replacing it, instead of fixing it. The Prizm also has a history of brake repairs. So instead of throwing more money into it, that we may end up spending again in a few months, we decided to buy new.
