The wed. Before hand I went in and had and oil change and fluids refilled. And there was no issue with the brake fluid line there was no leak at the time. And the leak wasn't an issue until after they replaced the rotors and pads. So how in the word should I have to pay to fix something that they had done.

Because I wasn't having a fluid leak until after they put the rotors and breaks on the car. So from friday to sunday. 2 days after the fact. The break line is leaking. I mean honestly doesn't that sound a little odd to you.

I have owned my own shop for years and if this happened and has happened to my customers, it is there responsibility. I cannot warranty everything in the brake system that fails because I put pads and rotors. Hard for you to understand but thats the reality of it.

ASEMaster I clearly understand what u are saying and I respect your opinion. I just think that it is way to much of a coincidence and if there was some were and tear on the line why wouldn't they have said somethng to me about it while they were fixing it so they could have went ahead and replaced the line while they already had everything off the wheel.
