How do free brake pads sound? For customers who come in to participate in the 'Brakes for Breasts' event, they will get free brake pads and just have to pay for labor and any other parts while 10% of the bill will go towards the Breast Cancer Vaccine Fund according to the Brakes for Breasts website. 

Elysian Auto Service is just one of three shops in all of Minnesota participating in the Brakes for Breasts event, the other two auto repair shops are Love's Garage in
Saint Bonifacius and Superior Automotive Solutions in Mankato.
