My divorced w/ children girlfriend has some issues with her newer model Land Rover mostly with squeaky brakes with a bit of shimmy when stopping.. When she called the mechanic, he diagnosed it as an issue with brake replacement an/or/both the rotors as well.
He quoted her a cost of 1,000 to 1,200 to fix it. This seems like more than highway robbery, since new brakes and turning rotors together would cost around $200.00 for a standard car.
His claim is the Land Rovers is a very discriminative SUV. It requires factory parts or it will cause all types of other issues such as warning check engine lights going off and also providing poor road performance. Even if this is true, the price still seems really high. I strongly think that he is taking advantage of her because of her single status.
I would be very APPRECIATIVE to hear from anyone who has knowledge on Rover Repair costs. I will forward your advice on to her.
Thank you for your help!
