Brake problems 850 1995

My Volvo 850 shudders when I brake. It has front and rear rotors that are less than 10000 miles old. My pads are 5000 miles old. The front rotors have been turned once because they were warped. The mechanic says my front rotors are bad and need to be replaced. He said that my front brakes are bad too because they are uneven.

I hear a scratching noise coming from the engine. The mechanic says it is due to a worn serpentine belt. He demonstrated it by spraying lubricant on the belt and the sound went away for a little while. However, my serpentine belt is only 10000 miles old.

My friends tell me to ask a guy to send the vehicle for repair instead of going there myself because mechanics take guys more seriously than girls.

Any help is greatly appreciated. Thank you.
