This is just bad journalism.

WHat is so expensive? Cost of labour? Cost of the part? If you literally have to take apart most of the car, than can end with hundreds of human-hours of labour and depending on the price per hour, can get very very expensive.

On the other hand, I agree that parts costs should be regulated, where a sum of all parts should not exceed eg. 3x the cost of a new car (some overhead is of course needed in selling separate parts). But we don't know that either.
