I have been told by a state inspection that my emergency brake is not holding. What is involved in getting that repaired? Is it major brake work?

    If the cables simply need adjusting, you should be able to get that done for $50. If the cables need replaced the front would be $120, 1 rear would be$225 and both rear would be $350. Hopefully it just needs adjustment or one cable. You need a ASE certified tech to check it out and then the shop can tell you exactly what it will cost.
