01 intrepid struts

Matt T 4 February 2005 03:13:40
 01 Chrysler Intrepid ES 74,000 km

Both front struts are leaking and need to be replaced (according to my
extended Warranty appointed shop, and the struts by the way are
conveniently not covered under my warrany). I will be having a second
shop, which I trust, look at the car on friday. In the meantime I'm
wondering what the expected life of the struts are on these cars (ie.
2nd gen LH series).

I've been quoted nearly $1400 canadian for munroe struts, mounts and a
left inner tie rod with 4.5hrs labour @80/hour and an alignment. I will
be calling some other shops for quotes as well.

Any info would be appreciated

Meant to say "...other than a new bushing..." there.

 But if the shop and the customer mutually agree that any warranty issues
will not be the shop's problem, then what's the beef. Or is this a
situation where some stupid law precludes a shop not warrantying the job
even if mutually agreed to?

Speaking from a dealers stand point here. We offer 12 months or 12k miles
on parts and labor, most parts bought thru another parts store do not
honor that kind of warranty and they sure dont pay the labor to reinstall
it if it does fail.
And once again when the liars, I mean lawyers get into it.....you loose
even if you win.
I have had to install non Chrysler Parts before and the only gaurantee I
give is that is wont fall off.
