Lexus is a Japanese car, and like most Japanese cars, they dont really require special parts/tools like the german counterparts. So basically, anyone/shop with knowledge of cars and the right set of hand tools could have fixed it

^agreed. Anyone who works on imports would be able to fix your problem. What exactly was the 700 for? Alternator replacement and battery?

I would totally get an independent garage to do work on my car, but there is no lexus specialist around my area, except for the lexus dealership. The dealership is excellent in my opinion, and they charge a very fair "dealership price". Maybe when i finish school and move to a bigger city like Toronto, then I will find one.

Total damage is $700. I though Christmas is still a month away.
What did they do?

Why didn't you buy a CPO when buying used?
