Default Cost of Thermostat Assembly for Sonata

Hi,
Apparently my 2015 Hyundai Sonata needs a thermostat assembly, and the repair place we took it to says the part is $693 plus $400 labor. Does that sound correct?
Thanks.

Where did you take it to get that estimate?
Did they tell you why the figure was so high?

It's extortionate. rock auto has the complete housing for $150 (make sure you get the correct part for you, link is only an example) 2015 HYUNDAI SONATA 2.4L L4 Thermostat Housing / Water Outlet | RockAuto
Normally it's only the small thermostat that fails, but when the plastic housing is removed it will usually crack and need replaced. Otherwise the thermostat itself is about $40
$400 labor also seems insane to me. Accessing the housing is 30 min or less, draining the coolant is 30 min. At most 1.5-2h job
