Repairs and Maintenance
As with all services, there are many options for auto repair, and word of mouth is the best guide. For specific types of repairs, such as mufflers, transmissions and brakes, there are national chain service centers that guarantee their work. Major department stores like Sears also often have auto service departments. With any repair, it is wise to insist on a written estimate up front, before you agree to the repair work. If you have problems, be aware that most local consumer protection agencies have a great deal of experience in dealing with auto repair shops.
