How much does tie rod replacement cost in Mississauga, Ontario?
In Mississauga, tie rod replacement typically costs between $200 and $450 CAD for a standard vehicle. SUVs and luxury vehicles cost more due to larger parts and additional labour. These estimates are based on the local independent shop labour rate of $145/hour.
Why is tie rod replacement cheaper in Mississauga than in downtown Toronto?
Mississauga shops charge around $145/hr, which is close to the GTA average. You can still save by comparing 2–3 independent shops rather than going to a dealership.
Should I go to a dealership or an independent shop for tie rod replacement in Mississauga?
