Question about service costs for American cars here
Lawrence Cole

Been driving an older Ford Explorer for about two years now and I've just been taking it to whatever garage is closest whenever something needs doing, but I'm starting to wonder if I'm paying way too much for regular maintenance. The AC is struggling a bit with summer coming and I know that's gonna need looking at, plus it's probably due for a full service soon, belts and fluids and all that. I've been trying to get a sense of what I should actually be paying for this stuff around Dubai because the quotes I've gotten vary wildly depending on where I go. Found this site that actually lists typical car service prices in the UAE for different models and it's been super helpful as a benchmark, gave me a much clearer idea of what's reasonable and what's a rip off. Just wondering if anyone here drives something similar and what you're paying for things like AC repairs or major services, would be good to compare notes and see if my usual garage is fair or if I should start looking around.
