Thanks!

Why are you taking your car to the dealership for servicing? If you want you can just give me your money if you have too much of it.
My recommendation is Speedy Apollo in Midnapore. Very good shop that is trustworthy.

I would also like the names of Mechanics.
We are in Auburn Bay, so somewhere in the SE would be nice.

My family has gone to Dean at Chetlen Auto for decades. Definitely recommend him, especially if you're in the south.

Jay at The Mechanics. It's the place on 14th St. SW with the Volkswagen Beetle (Bug) out front.
I'm not a car guy at all, but he was always really good about explaining exactly what was wrong, what it would take to fix it, and whether or not something needed to be fixed. I'd highly recommend them if you live anywhere near there.

Wrenches off 32 Ave in the NE. I sent my dad there when he had to get the brakes replaced on his Camry. Jay charged him just over half what the Toyota dealership was asking. He's always been honest with me. Telling me what needs to be done, or what can wait until the next scheduled service.

Knibbe automotive is my go to when I need work done. They always save all your old parts to prove that they actually needed replacing. Super honest guys.

Which part of the city are you in? SE Airdrie has a good shop, Tools In Motion. You can take your vehicle there, or they can come to you. And, I might know of a private mechanic that may be able to assist, depending on make/model of vehicle, and availability of a place to do repairs.
