$1,269

3 in 4 paid less

The shaded middle is where half of all these repairs landed: $650 – $1,269. A quote inside that band is normal. Cheaper or pricier isn't automatically wrong — but it's worth asking why.

Cost by model year

Newer model years cost more: the newest group runs about 43% above the oldest. If your quote is for a car in one of these groups, compare it with that row. Middle half of real Honda CR-V invoices for each group, parts + labor:

Model years	Typical cost	Median
2004 and older	$460 – $1,007	$722
2005–2009	$688 – $1,285	$918
2010–2014	$739 – $1,398	$1,035

What this repair is

Struts combine the spring and damper into one leg of your suspension. Worn ones bounce after bumps, clunk, cup tires, and stretch stopping distance. They are replaced in pairs per axle, and an alignment afterward is part of an honest quote — the strut sets the geometry the alignment depends on.

Is your quote fair?

If your quote lands between $650 and $1,269, it's inside the range where half of all real Honda CR-V repairs of this kind land — and the typical job takes about 3.4 hours of labor. Quotes well below aren't automatically good news (economy parts, or related work skipped) and quotes above aren't automatically gouging (trim variants, premium parts, seized hardware) — but both ends deserve questions.
