Brakes, Which One Is Right For You

The reason for this article is the chemical plant fire in Germany as was written about in the article Chemical Factory Fire Threatens Global Car Production at  http://bloodycars.co.uk and how it will possibly effect the industry.

In that article it disclosed that about 30 percent of the world’s brake and fuel line production would be effected by this fire and the resultant loss of chemical production. With this loss of production prices are going to increase across the board for everyone in the world, and it is doubtful that it will only be 30 percent. Unfortunately, the industry can not simply increase the price of one component 30 percent or more, what will most likely happen is this increase will be passed on in every brake component. Which means the retail consumer is most likely going to gravitate to the lowest price brake service even more and possibly use brakes that are not of good quality. Which could not only place them in danger but everyone else that shares the road with them.
