Brought my SUV in recently for Radiator Leak.
The charge was $25.00 and took over 2 hours to do, after I returned the cashier advised me that the radiator was bad and needed to be replaced. The quoted job was over $1500.00 for parts and labor.
The radiator was less than two years old and in decent condition.
So I took my business elsewhere.
The place that eventually got my business inspected the radiator for free in less than 30 minutes. As I suspected the radiator was fine and all that was needed was a few minor adjustments.
The final repair price ended up being less than $100.00.
I am glad I followed my instinct on this one. This place is extremely dishonest and I would recommend taking your business to a more reputable, honest mechanic.
