Specialty shops (Tune-ups, brakes, exhaust, transmissions, tires, etc.) in my opinion are more experienced in what they do. They see the same problems over and over again.
Their prices are usually fair and can give quick and accurate estimates. Where as a general repair shop sees a different problemevery day. I sometimes compare this to lets say a general physician compared to a heart specialist. Who would you rather see for a heart problem? So as you can see finding the right repair shop could save you alot of time And money.
I have seen just recently there are auto repairs
referral services available in the phone books to help you locate a shop. I actually had this idea over 25 years ago! I should of ran with it! This is new and I can’t tell you how reliable they are.
Questions you ask could save you money After finding the right repair shop ask to speak to the store manager. Getting his name during the conversation is a good idea. Ask him if he has any specials or discounts for new customers. Just the idea of attracting new business he will most likely work with you. Whatever your situation is,
Tell him your not happy with your current mechanic or you are new to the area and are looking for a new place to start bringing your business to. I have also seen this work many times over and over again. .........
