I was told at the Honda Dealership that my positive battery cable was corroded and was quoted at $630 to replace the entire thing. I'm not even having any issues with the battery or starting the car. Seems outrageous to me since the car is fairly new (2007 and covered under warranty). Another repair shop said he'd replace the end for much less. Any advice

    Did they actually show you the problem? If the car is under warranty why are they trying to charge you for the repair?
    Get a second opinion and a better explanation. Ask them to show the problem to you.
