How to Find Reliable Car Mechanics and Repair Shops

Before you consider where to take your vehicle for Scheduled maintenance can be performed at any dealership; you don't have to go to the one where you bought the vehicle. Likewise, you can take your vehicle to an independent auto-repair shop or franchise, which are typically less expensive than dealerships. Federal law gives you the right to service your vehicle wherever you like without affecting your warranty coverage. (Depending on the contract, lessees may be required to have all service performed at a dealership.) Mechanics in your dealership's service department are specifically trained and certified in all aspects of your model's service needs, and the shop will be equipped with all of the necessary diagnostic equipment. Because maintenance items are fairly basic, however, any professional auto shop should be able to perform the necessary tasks. Wherever you go for service, make sure they have access to the manufacturer's latest technical service bulletins (TSBs), which are basically instructions on how to fix common problems with a particular model. Often, an automaker will do TSB repairs for free, but you'll have to go to a dealership to get the work done. Repairs can range from basic tasks such as a brake job or auto-body repair to complicated service such as overhauling a transmission or diagnosing an electronics-system problem. Go to a dealership if your car is covered by the original warranty and you want the manufacturer to pay for the fix. Use a dealership, ...

Most car repairs start as estimates, so you’ll get a sense of the cost before you agree to the repair. Then, in most cases, you don’t pay anything to the auto repair shop or dealership until the work is complete and you see the final bill. However, for major body work some repair shops may require money up front. If you need to make the repairs but can’t afford it, you’ll want to investigate all your options: • Find out what • Consider the financing or payment plans that many car dealerships and repair shops offer for car repairs. Ask lots of questions and be wary of high interest rates that add more to your total repair bill. • Check into low-income grants or assistance, including from your church or local United Way chapter. Some programs exist to help people pay for transportation, including car repairs. • Inquire with your bank about a personal loan or use a credit card to finance the repairs. Just know the implications of the interest rates first and shop around to get the best financing deal that meets your needs. • You can try negotiating any estimates with the car repair shop or dealership. Bottom line: You don’t want to find yourself owing for an expensive repair and getting stuck with a mechanic’s lien on your vehicle after all the work gets done. A lien means the auto repair or dealership will take a legal claim over your car until you pay what you owe. Remember, most car repairs start as estimates, so you’ll have an idea of the cost before the work starts. Plus...
