Is this accurate or an up charge?

hello everyone! so i have a 2019 ford fiesta sedan, sitting at around 91,670 miles. it has recently started to shudder when i accelerate, the RPM is fluctuating but rarely- mostly on an incline. and when i turn the car off it has started to make a quick scrape sound. and no the check engine light is not on.
i took it to a mechanic, he said all he did was drive it and estimated it would be $10,000 to fix it. he didn’t even charge me a diagnostic fee because again he said all he did was drive it. he suggested i just sell the car. so, is this accurate? idk much about cars and am willing to go to other mechanics if its worth it.
i really don’t want to sell my car, i love it.
