What is a requirement for dealers and other repairers regarding providing estimates for repairs?

  1. They must offer discounts on estimates to customers

  2. They are not obligated to provide estimates

  3. They must provide estimates for repairs

  4. They need to get approval for estimates from a third party

The correct answer is: They must provide estimates for repairs

Repair shops are required to give estimates for repairs in order to provide transparency and allow customers to make informed decisions about their repairs. This is to ensure fair and honest practices in the industry. Option A, offering discounts on estimates, is not a requirement and may vary depending on the individual shop's policies. Option B, not providing estimates, goes against the requirement and may indicate questionable business practices. Option D, getting approval from a third party, may be necessary for certain insurance or warranty claims, but it is not a requirement for all repairs. Therefore, the most accurate requirement for dealers and other repairers is to provide estimates for repairs.
