I own both of these vehicles...and they both make a loud grinding noise when pressure is applied to the brakes. Does this mean they need brake jobs??And how much would the brake job cost for each vehicle??

It definatly aint good! Time to puill the tires and inspect both the outer and inner rotor surfaces...This may need more than pads, might now need at least Rotors, and posibly calipers...

Any car that already has grinding brakes, needs to be inspected, then priced, I really can't do that over the internet! Worst case? Calipers pads and rotors, Call local parts store for prices!
