The mechanic is saying that is going to cost me $800 but I feel like I am possibly getting ripped off. Any Help?? 2003 Jeep Liberty 6cyl 3.7L 99215 miles Discretesignals Ultimate Carjunky / Moderator Dec 19, 2012, 1:15 PM Post #2 of 5 (2029 views) Re: 2003 Jeep Liberty Problems Sign In Are they using dealer parts? Aftermarket parts at an independent shop should be somewhere around $500. You should call around some of the other shops in your area and do some price comparisons. Since we volunteer our time and knowledge, we ask for you to please follow up when a problem is resolved. AlyseA Novice Dec 19, 2012, 2:27 PM Post #3 of 5 (1999 views) Re: 2003 Jeep Liberty Problems Sign In So I did some calling around and I was told that for everything I need and service it would only be $490 (at the most) and I was told that for 2 different shops. But one thing that worries me is if its cheaper does that mean they are using used or cheap parts or are they giving me a more honest price than the $800. Discretesignals Ultimate Carjunky / Moderator Dec 19, 2012, 5:08 PM Post #4 of 5 (1986 views) Re: 2003 Jeep Liberty Problems Sign In You should ask what brand of parts they are using. Our shop has had decent luck with aftermarket parts. Ask the shop what their warranty is. If you want factory oem parts, an independent can always install them for you.

The cheaper prices may be just a radiator and the fans. The higher price may include all new antifreeze, perhaps radiator hoses as they would be removed at radiator already and now 10ish years old. IDK, flushing out cooling system. Dealer parts do near always cost more. Some aftermarket parts are just as good - a few better. Some dealers will use aftermarket parts too. There may be no mal intent with what either would do or consider as part of the job.
