[QUOTE="John G, post: 1021181, member: 63360"] Keith, I drove no other vehicle the same day. You're probably thinking that if I had driven a car with firmer brakes that would have trained me to expect that, and that is good thinking. Seven hours passed while I was at work nearby, but I moved about only on foot. Eddie, I suppose they could have damaged a brake line. I haven't looked yet. The manager at the counter claimed they did no work on the brakes, so I pointed out that they must have removed the caliper. He replied yes, but no brake lines were disconnected., which sounds right. I then asked if the mechanic could have let the caliper dangle (I was thinking of the ossibioity of damage) and he said no. He offered to bleed them at no cost, so I agreed, but I didn't sense much difference. So I am still wondering if I could be imagining it. [/QUOTE]
