So, I got another jeep cherokee, don't ask me why, maybe I am just addicted to them. But of recent the windshield wipers won't park. I went to check about it today, while looking for a new mechanic same time. I fired the last one, cause he was ripping me off. Well I was standing close enough to this mechanic, when he was making a phone call to check about the switch. I could hear the guy on the other end of the phone say "$129.00". The mechanic gets off the phone and says to me "$229.00". WTF??? Yeah I am blonde but not stupid. I can fix certain things around my car and have the book. So can anybody help me out or recommend a decent mechanic in the South Etobicoke area? I know I am not asking too much ;-) TIA
 
When you say got another, is it new. What about warranty on the wipers. Have had jeeps in the past and the wipers were always crap. Become the dealers worst nightmare, they'll fix it to keep you away.
 
129 was his cost and garages like to mark up the parts to make money, somewhere's 30 to 40%. I think he marked it up too much.. but if times are quiet for there garage they have to make money somehow to make ends meet... lots of garages out there so just keep looking for a good one.. there around.. try a garage that has older mechanics running it, they will be the best .
