Opinions please on AC repair quote

Hello all,

This is my first post after having jumped ship from my hugely expensive to maintain 03 Range Rover to my 07 EB Expedition and so far loving this truck!

I felt that the AC was just not cool enough...ok for a 80 degree day, but not quite up to it on a Texas 100 degreee day. I have just taken it in to an independent to diagnose the problem and they have come back with a heart stopping $2169 estimate!

They are saying that the receiver (which is part of the condenser on this vehicle) has broken and taken out the compressor, therefore requiring:

Compressor Kit: Compressor, Condensor, Expansion valve front / rear
Parts total: $1187.50
Labor total: $883.60

Should I get another opinion? Any thoughts suggestions ?

Many thanks
Phil
