Metal rod
Notice this when I had to stop due to the car not shifting to park. Also the car started to rev high and it went no where when I gave it some gas.

Sounds too good to be true, but hope it is. Are you certain that they are installing an OEM axle and not an aftermarket axle?

For only an extra $100, I'd go with the OEM....

If you keep the car another 3 years/ 45K miles, it's only $33/year...

Broken axles aren't all that unusual.

It's likely the other side isn't far behind. They corrode behind the rubber dampers.
