2010 Civic: Normal Lifespan Of Breaks?

Well first you might want to spell it "brakes"!

You must drive pretty carefully if you have a four year old car and are just now having the first brake work done over 40k miles!

It's also a bit unusual for both front and rear to go out at the same time.

The price? I dunno. I guess I haven't had much brake work done either for some time, driving leased Accords I trade in before they need it! But $600 sounds high even for four wheels and even turning the front rotors. Well maybe, with the rotors.

I've had trouble sleeping for most of August, my relationship is on the rocks and three weeks ago my father suddenly died. It was cancer he didn't know he had and it got to his liver before doctors could help him.

I had to drop my car off in that shop the day before the burying of his ashes. Luckily they weren't too busy and they got the car ready by the end of Friday so I was able to drive up the cemetery the next day.

My guess is that all of things made me a sloppy writer the day I posted my question. I apologize if my poor spelling annoyed you.

Thank you answering my question.

There's "breaks" and "brakes" and I only really had comments on the later. Sorry about the others but I really didn't know.

You mean "latter". "Later" and "latter" are different words.

It's dangerous correcting other people's spelling mistakes. You might embarrass yourself by making your own misteaks.

I don't want to strain anyone's vocabulary with schmancy words.

It wasn't so much that you misspelled; more so that you used an entirely different word.
