Had a power surge knock out my refrig a few weeks ago. Looked up the problem on the net and told my wife it was probably the start cap. and that it was a $50 part.

Wife: No get someone out to fix it!

I called and Sears said they would fix it but there would be $60 service charge and a guy would be out in 4 days. We have a freezer and a small refrig so she said do it!

Sears guy arrives replaces the part, that I told my wife was the problem, and charges us $300+! He was here for about 20 min.

So we were charged for the part plus the $60 service call and about $200 labor.

My wife is that way with her Tahoe.

One day her oil light came on, I told her I should get out and check the oil. She said, “no, let’s drive it to the dealer to see what’s wrong.”

I just shook my head.
