I found the culprit of my lack of parking brake on the Focus; both lines are stretched and frozen.
I took it to a shop, and they told me that it would cost $65 (parts and labor), when we only thought it was one that was broken. He took it on a lift, and discovered that both would need replacing.
I'm thinking $130, $140, right?
He quoted me at ~$200. That made no sense, and I told him to take it off the lift.
Another guy told me ~$180 for labor. BEFORE parts.
One guy was reasonable, $90 for labor, and $80 for parts (from the dealer). He said that he'd do it if I bought my own parts, too.
How much is too much?
