Just another repair shop rant

My son took his car, a 2002 Hyundai to a local private shop that his wife and her family has been using for many years. They quoted him over $1200 for various repairs that were needed. My son doesn't know much about cars so they really could have taken him for a ride but instead they didn't recommend that the repairs be done because the frame had some bad rust damage. They said the car would be ok to drive the way it is for awhile but the frame might not hold up to well if he were to get in an accident. All I can say is I wish this shop was closer to me. I guess not all shops are bad!
