Quick Tips On Finding a Repair Shop

With car repairs, as with all other areas, consumer protection starts with you. When you set out to have your car repaired, shop as carefully as you would when making any other sizeable expenditure.

  • Begin by asking friends, neighbours, co-workers and acquaintances to recommend a garage.
  • Go to the repair shop and speak with the service manager or owner. Ask to see the mechanic’s licence if it isn’t posted in plain view and ask questions until you feel comfortable.
  • Ask for references and check them.
  • Question any special discount offers – the lowest price may not be the best deal in the long run.
