I'm taking my truck in next week to have the recall work done. I asked about a frame inspection and driveline vibration. The dealership called back about a half hour later and told me there would be a $125/hr charge for the frame inspection. Is this the normal charge for frame inspections?

I thought the "rust belt" tacos got free inspections?
