I just read the other comment about this shop, and I think that person may have been from a competing repair shop. Belden's ran a diagnostic for me and did it for free. Waived the $95 fee because I was a new customer. I know very little about cars, and they surely didn't have to waive the fee that I was ready to pay. I received an itemized list of parts and repairs, looked up the cost of each (online) and it was pretty much either the lower end or exactly the average price. $168.54 for labor and $230 for parts on a wheel bearing remove and replace:
"Labor costs are estimated between $140 and $178 while parts are priced between $211 and $411"

Their service was so professional, courteous, and quick! I should have rated this place right after my business with them. At least I can honestly say that I have been satisfied with the service after nearly 4 months from date the maintenance took place. They even provide free rides home from their shop! This will be the only repair shop that I will trust with my car from now on.

They are friendly and accommodating, however, I paid $98 to run a diagnostic which I did myself and provided the codes plus $90 to have a thermostat replaced. The dealer would have done the whole job for about $75. Had them recommend a new steering pump for about $400, dealer said needed a hose, $140 and they ran a diagnostic for free. Had other experiences where they recommended work that was not needed. Never going back there again, waste of my intelligence when it comes to what I know about cars.
