Neutral Safety Switch Replacement

Is what the dealer is stating as the issue on my 2019 w/ 54k miles. They’re quoting $717 to replace (it’s under 3/36 warranty), part is $75. Anyone have experience replacing this on a 3rd gen?

 

No experience; but...

 

Thank you! Where'd you find that I couldn't find anything for 3rd Gens. Dealer actually sent me a video of where it is I was just gonna pop it off and put the new one on.

If you're under warranty, why are they quoting you any price, and why do the work yourself?

 

Said part/service is 3yr/36k...
He's at 54k.

 

D'ohhhh... missed that part. Never mind, it's early and I'm insufficiently caffinated! The book R&R on that job cant be more than 1 - 1.25 at the most, can it?

 

@Bishop84

 

The manager quoted it at 3 hours of labor which sounds wild unless they're letting it soak for 2.5 hours to get the part off lol

 

There have been a few WO quotes posted lately that are just as gross as yours. Absolutely robbery for similar tasks.

 

WTF? 3 Hours??? I'm pretty sure I could do that in an hour in my driveway. With a shop and lift, that should definitely be <1 real time.

 

Great post!

 

That's the plan

 

What site is this?

 

Deleted previous post forgot to block out name hopefully don't get sued.

@jbronnier Mitchell Prodemand it is a pay for shop manual.

 

thank you sir

 

For a part that's less than $40 and less than an hour to replace, I would say it's not worth having a dealer fix just for a 3 year warranty. Ignoring that outrageous price also....

 

It's also $190 for the automatic version OEM (8454060050)... debating going third party

 

I looked up part number I see as low as $111 from dealers online. MSRP is $166.35 so shouldn't be paying more than that for it. NAPA didn't list one, but for the OEM vs aftermarket debate get OEM new cars can be super finicky with aftermarket electronics plus if you find an aftermarket it'll either be reboxed OEM with a markup or some really shoddy chinese junk.
