Consumers lose billions of dollars each year on unneeded or poorly done car repairs. The most important step that you can take to save money on these repairs is to find a skilled, honest mechanic. Before you need repairs, look for a mechanic who:
• is certified and well established;
• has done good work for someone you know; and
• communicates well about repair options and costs.
