1999 Saturn SC1 4 cyl Automatic 129000 miles

Can you please advise the approximate costs and labor involved in changing out the fan motor on my vehicle? I looked up the part online at NAPA and it is $43.69, but the mechanic wants to charge me $250 to fix it. I feel that this is incredibly high unless it is quite labor intensive.

Hello and thanks for donating

That estimate is very outrageous for this repair. The repair will only take approximately 45 minutes or so.. A fair estimate is below for having this repair made at a local dealer...
