I had my 2005 Toyota matrix starter replaced. The service was very good - received calls and the work was done day of. I was not happy with how much I was charged for a starter - $267. This seemed excessive considering refurbished starters go for around $75 and new around $125. Wondering why the huge upcharge?
James, thank you for the review. Yes you can buy the starter cheaper at a parts house, basically you are cutting out the middle man in the process, we have to make a profit to stay in business. If you check on any website like repair pal, they can give you a price range for having someone do the job. Our prices are within the range that you would pay for retail work, whereas when you buy the part you are paying wholesale for the part.
