Verify by VIN
No accidents reported; odometer readings are sequential with no rollbacks.
$18,000 is materially above mid-$14k market signals—negotiate toward $14.5k–$15.5k if PPI is clean.
NHTSA lists model-line campaigns; CARFAX shows zero—VIN verification required before you buy.
Two long oil-change gaps and repeat A/C compressor work are negotiation leverage.

- Can you split OEM vs aftermarket on the pad and rotor line?
- What book time source did you use for 2.8 labor hours?
- Were rotors replaced or machined—and does labor reflect that?
- Negotiate from ranges, not gut feel.
- Spot padded labor before you sign the RO.
- Walk away or request a revised line-item estimate.
Illustrative only—not a real shop or transaction. Run QuoteGuard on your own quote photo or PDF.
