Model numbers and error codes would help. Dryers are very simple appliances, just something to produce heat and something to turn a drum.
Factory manufacturing has gotten pretty good so that everything coming off the assembly line is pretty much identical, and they are all likely to fail in similar ways. Some of the appliance parts sites I use lists the parts by "popularity", so it's a pretty good indicator of what parts will fail first.
Since I don't know the exact model, I just searched on Frigidaire Laundry Center and came up with this page. For the dryer, the drive belt and thermal limiter seem like the most frequent to fail. The drive motor didn't make the first page.

So, tell us how it's mis/behaving, and more details on the model number and we might be able to diagnose it better than the guy you called and point you to a DIY fix.
