I recently utilized the Repair Pal Online System to get an estimate to have the spark plugs in my 2006 Mustang GT changed. The shop located in Dover, DE, was featured as one of their participants. Repair Pal gave an estimate of $301 to $345 to replace the plugs.
When I arrived at the shop at the time and date confirmed by Repair Pal, I was told that my appointment was not in the system. After we resolved that issue, I was given a written estimate of $798.49 to replace the plugs and one hour labor to remove any broken plug ($150 each). The ucharge cost on the spark plugs is huge. They wanted to charge me $469.84 for 8 double platinum type. That's $58.73 per plug. Advanced Auto Parts, which is located accross the street from the shop offers the double platinum plug for $21.99 each. ($18.69 currently on sale) I respectfully declined the service. Repair Pal and the business need to honor their estimates. The difference between $345 and $798 is more than double. Although the Service advisor at the shop was professional, my day was ruined. I had finally budgeted $400 for service, only to be disappointed by this experience.
