They charged me $500 to fix a vacuum leak and replace an engine temperature sensor. Their work was good, Although I thought $500 was excessive. The real rub was when they tried to tell me that the brake pads and rotors were bad and needed to be replaced. I knew this was wrong because I had personally replaced both the pads and the brake rotors with high quality components just the month before. I related this to them and they then said my radiator had a bad leak. I told them the radiator was new and had been installed a few months before by the Jeep dealer, but that I would check it out. It is now 3 years later and the radiator has never leaked or given me any trouble. This experience has caused me never to return to them. To me, they are dishonest and try to take advantage of people, both in there prices AND their attempts to solicit work that doesn't need to be done. I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS COMPANY.

I took my truck into Southern CDJ for diagnosis and repair. They said I needed to have my thermostat replaced. The service department informed me that a charge that the cost breakdown was $80 for the diagnosis and $350 (+) for the part/labor. Having some mechanical knowledge, I told them that I would come and get my truck. I told the service person that that was a rip-off. The service manager stepped out of his office and knocked of 50% of the diagnosis cost. Whoopee…..Thermostat/gasket from Rock Auto - $20.52 …1 Gal antifreeze Wal-Mart- $7.00…Local Mechanic labor cost - $60.00. Total cost: $87.52.
