Drum brakes are commonly found on older vehicles and are less expensive to repair than disc brakes, which are found on most newer vehicles.
Brake pads and rotors are the most commonly replaced components of a drum brake system.
The brake pads are the material that makes contact with the brake rotor to create friction and slow the vehicle down. Brake pads wear down over time and will eventually need to be replaced.
The labor costs for replacing drum brakes can vary widely depending on the shop. Some shops may charge a flat rate, while others may charge by the hour.
It's important to get a quote from a reputable shop before having your drum brakes repaired.
