There are few women who are able to boast of excellent knowledge of the iron filling of a car. Knowing the tricks of unscrupulous auto repairmen, you can recognize deception.
More and more women are becoming true auto ladies. How to protect yourself from unscrupulous car service employees?
When there are any unusual sounds or knocking, the majority strives to diagnose their car in order to prevent damage. It is best to go to a car service with a man (husband, boyfriend, relative, neighbor) who is well versed in the device of the car. There are typical situations of car service scams:
1) In the event of an accident, when the insurance company sends the car to a specific car service or to an authorized dealer, carefully study the work order. Sometimes there are parts that have not been installed, or small things in large quantities. Of course, in this case, the insurance company will "steer", but you will already have an idea about this car service.
2) Replacement of functional spare parts with new ones. Sometimes not only good mechanics work in car services, but also excellent psychologists. They are able to convince the client that this particular part needs to be replaced, otherwise breakage cannot be avoided (and it is especially easy to do this for a person who does not understand).
3) If in a car service the calculation is carried out according to standard hours, there is a high probability that an inexperienced client will “attribute” extra work.
The ideal option is to use the services of the same workshop, which is consistent in terms of price-quality-decency and qualifications of the craftsmen.
