Car thermostat question?

Hi ive had a recent problem with my car. The gauge in my car for the temp has been in the red and i pulled over n let it cool down and all my fluid leaked out. I took it to the shop an they said i need a new thermostat cuz my current one was sticking and causig the fluid to leak out the side, a coolant flush, and my rear brakes were trashed. Ive had zero problems with my brakes and the 547 bucks he wanted to fix those things was redicilous. Well i need a car and i would like your opinion on how much you think i would be charged just for the thermostat to be replaced and a coolant flush would cost. The only reason i can think of that would cost so much is maybe labor repairing my brakes? I figure if theyre already trashed and i never noticed whats the difference. Two weeka prior i got an oil change at a different place and they checked my car and never said anything about brakes. I really have no idea what the place that gave me that estimate was even doing looking at my rear brakes when i went there to check the overheating issue anyway! Hopefully they were just trying to rip me off.Car thermostat question?they just want to lube you and rub your brakes. what shop so i can avoid it cause you'll probably shut them down. a good price depends // amount of time and per hour... i agree what did they want with your brakes...autozone.com parts store.Car thermostat question?to flush the system and replace the thermostat should cost between 50 and 100, rear brakes should cost 100 - 150 depending on the needs...
