Question:
We went to get our car inspected ('97 Infinity, was banged up in an very, very minor accident last year, post-inspection) and were quoted a price of $950 for repairs to the front right axle, a pump in the same general area, and the high beams. We hadn't noticed anything wrong with the car, but the axle was broken, the pump was dripping, and the high beams don't work (we don't drive at night)... clearly, these repairs are necessary, but since we're new to car ownership, I want to know if this sounds like a reasonable amount for these repairs, or if we're getting ripped off. The service station seems clean and reputable, and we're in NYC, but just need to know if we're being taken for a ride. Thanks!

I would not use just any repair shop. If I do not know the owner or at least one of the mechanics, I would take it to a major dealership. ie. Ford, Dodge etc. Get more than one estimate! Labor rates can run from $40hr to $100hr or more.98 Ford Mustang GT suspension problems.?

Depending on what pump needs replaced, and the extent of the repairs needed to correct your high beams, yes, it could cost up to $950, and possibly more. Most shops use a flat rate system to determine the cost of a repair, and its usualy laborXtime=cost. The fact that it is an Infinity surely doesn't help your situation, as parts for this car are likely to be expensive. I would say $950 is reasonable, although you can call around and someone will surely do it cheaper just to get your business.More Questions & Answers ...
