Price for a control arm assembly is $172. Tie rod end is $50.61. A four wheel alignment is $90 (which includes the labor) around here (Ct) That totals up to about $313, leaving $387 for labor, which would be around 5 hours. It's not a 5 hour job! (maybe 2)

Ask the dealer to see how the work adds up to $700!
