does this seem outrageous to anyone? I don't want to change it myself due to the pyrotechnics, but the dealer wants $450.
Has anyone else had the passenger side latch fail (not even the driver side) in such a short period of time? The passenger side is rarely used in this vehicle which we've now owned going on 5 years. The service manager made it sound like it's not common but that it's not rare either.
In addition, the exhaust camshaft sensor is apparently bad as well. I can get the part cheaper than the dealer wants, and my Bentley manual makes it appear fairly simple to replace. Can anyone confirm that an amateur (yet knowledgeable) DIYer could handle the replacement of this part?
Of course the dealer went off on replacing brakes as well as indicating the start of a failure in the front suspension. I wasn't certain what he was talking about on the front suspension, but he did say I didn't have to worry about it for quite a while.
I'm new to this, but given the amounts the dealer wanted to rape me for, I think I could handle a few items myself.
I also bought one of those sensors a few months ago, but haven't ventured to try it out yet.
