How many labor hours to replace an airbag on Newell Coach?

Thanks for sharing your thoughts.

The shop rate is $175.00/hr for labor. The manager says he'll reduce the labor rate to $150/hour. Even at this reduced rate, I am still looking at a labor charge of $150/hr x 55.8h = $8370 for the 2nd repair. The 1st repair bill for replacing 2 airbags and + leveling sensor was over $4k.

Any comments and inputs are appreciated, especially with your experience replacing airbags or fixing coach leaning problems.
