Fit-for-Driving No. 10: Finding the Right Mechanic






Winter road safety involves taking care of your vehicle and finding the right mechanic. According to Consumer Guide (2009) it is important to find a mechanic that specializes in your car's make and model and to look for certification of their skills and abilities such as the National Institute for Automotive Service Excellence (ASE). Before selecting a mechanic, check with friends, the BBB, and other professionals to find what is being said or documented concerning their personal mechanic's customer service, quality of work, and ethical standards. This may help you make the right selection concerning finding the right mechanic for the repairs and preventative maintenance of your vehicle. In addition, make it a point to know your car's warranty information to make sure that you don't over pay for services and that you perform the recommended preventative maintenance for your vehicle in a timely manner.
