Durango, CO - October 30, 2025 - Firestone of Durango, a trusted full-service auto repair and tire shop located at 2515 Main Avenue in Durango, CO, is proud to announce its participation in the 15th annual Brakes for Breasts fundraiser this October. The locally owned shop, led by Chris Cotton, joins hundreds of independent auto repair facilities across the country in raising funds for a groundbreaking breast cancer vaccine.

Founded in 1985, Firestone of Durango has been a cornerstone of vehicle care for Durango residents and visiting motorists alike. Known for its exceptional service and community involvement, the shop offers comprehensive maintenance services, including tires, diagnostics, fluid exchanges, suspension, and brake repairs.

Firestone of Durango is currently the only shop in town offering:

*
A 4-year/48,000-mile parts and labor warranty

*
A 90-day ride-and-drive guarantee on every set of four tires sold

*
A free synthetic oil change with every set of four tires purchased

Brakes for Breasts: A Fundraiser with Purpose

During the month of October, Firestone of Durango will give away free quality brake pads or shoes as part of the Brakes for Breasts campaign. Customers simply pay for the labor and any additional parts needed for the brake job. The shop will then donate 10 percent of the total brake job directly to the Cleveland Clinic Breast Cancer Vaccine Research Fund, specifically supporting The Dr. Tuohy Lab.

This Brakes for Breasts fundraiser is different from other breast cancer campaigns:

*
The Dr. Tuohy Lab is a team of researchers at the Cleveland Clinic that has created a vaccine that has proved effective in laboratory animals in actually preventing breast cancer. Think about Polio, eradicated because of a vaccine, a distant memory for most generations. This is the same principle.

*
Phase 1a, 1b, and 1c clinical trials are currently underway.

*
The lab is actively working toward the launch of Phase 2.

*
100 percent of the proceeds from the Brakes for Breasts fundraiser go directly to the Cleveland Clinic for research on the Breast Cancer Vaccine.

*
These are just "mom & pop" shops across the country, independent business owners that have joined hands for a great cause.

To date, Brakes for Breasts has raised over $2.1 million for this critical research.

A Strong Commitment to Community

Firestone of Durango's involvement in Brakes for Breasts reflects its ongoing mission to serve and support the community. The business also actively contributes to:

*
La Plata County Search & Rescue

*
Parker's Animal Rescue

*
War Party Movement

*
Dove Transplant, a national nonprofit helping veterans receive kidney donations

The shop also offers a 12 percent discount on parts and labor (excluding tires) for first responders and school employees.
