[quote=Anonymous]Stupid Outback broke down while driving it, I was able to get it into a local mechanic shop that my family has used for years. Mechanic is slow but honest. It sits there for a week, he tells me there is a problem tied to engine, likely $500 to 700 to fix. I ask him to order parts but call me before doing work. I learn the problem may be covered by extended powertrain warranty. Dealership says I need to take car there to see if they will cover it. I call honest local guy, he says engine has been removed, problem worse than expected and will cost $1800 or $2k to fix, acknowledges may be under warranty. Says he doesn't want to spend 4 or 5 hours putting engine back in vehicle for me to tow to dealership. Now what. It seems idiotic to tow car with removed engine to dealership. Do I pay first guy to reinstall engine and then tow it?[/quote]
