My 430 was out of warranty by one month when the Comm receiver went out. Base fee $700 even if it costs $10. No consideration for the fact the unit had only been in service for 6 months. More than 15% of what I paid for it!!!
A neighbor had a 430 that he inadvertently pulled the squelch button. Thought the radio was broken. Sent it in, $700 + Shipping.
Paul is much more connected that the rest of us so I'm sure he'll get a deal on the service.
Garmin's service provides good turnaround but they have IRS type service rates.
