Emergency: Anyone in Vegas?

I ran over a tow hitch on the 15 freeway on my way back to Southern California from Las Vegas visiting family.

The tow hitch ripped through my oil pans both lower and upper and my car is at a local dealer in Vegas.

The quote is $2900 for labor and parts to replace both pans. Apparently the upper pan can only be replaced by removing the engine from the car (15 hours of labor at $130 per hour).

I obviously don't have $2900, anyone know an independent shop that might be more affordable?


The orginal quote was over $5k as I have a bent sub-frame and lower control arm as well.

My insurance doesn't cover road debris (only animals, natural disasters.)

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

extremely frustrated,
Chris
