Default Is this quote from Honda gouging???

My wife has a 2010 Pilot. The dealer says the "engine cooling hoses", not the water pump or radiator or thermostat... just the hoses need to
be replaced due to "age". Cost: $1250.00 This seems.... excessive.

Comments?

welcome to the forum. why are the engine cooling hoses need changing. are you having cooling or overheating problems. Ive got an 07 Fit with 285k have not changed any cooling hoses to date, only the cat. and adjust valves.

The dealer said it was because of "age". It's a 2010 with 105000 miles. I think, personally, that it's a scam. No leaks, no overheating, no issues. Scam. Declined the "throttle body cleaning" as well. Just wanted verification that I'm not out of my mind. Even if there was an issue, $1250 is b.s.

Be sure to spend the extra $250 to have them top off your blinker fluid too.
