I was just wondering how many hours of labor is customary to replace the heated seat element on a 2013 RAM 1500 passenger seat? The dealer is quoting me 4 hours. The seat does have the cooling. That seems a bit excessive?
OK. So I called the other dealer in town. He gave me a quote of 2.5 hours to do the work. They use the stock AllData hour quotes. What the heck? I think that it is time to ditch my current dealer and go to the other dealer in town.
One would think that Dodge would have a standard time quote for each repair. I guess not.
there was a recall on my 04 grandcherokee after purchase. the elements had to be replaced, some were catching fire or something like that. i do know they have to remove the seat.
