Front electronic shocks failed, cost is $1500 to replace both, ouch

That price is about right. Might be able to search for less expensive replacement parts but you will usually get what you pay for. If you would like a second opinion and get a quote feel free to stop in at Advanced Auto Clinic in Delavan or give us a call, 262-728-2944. We are open Mon.-Fri. 7:30-5:30.
