Den can fix almost anything but there have been some times when he has to bring it in and we were robbed. He was so pissed!

You can go to BrakeCheck.com and put in your zipcode to locate the nearest one.<br /><br />I might go online and look for reviews for one I had never been to before. But that is just me.Franceshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01817017829323955078noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6379327498578817385.post-25086176402458029062011-01-19T10:50:55.849-06:002011-01-19T10:50:55.849-06:00Wow!

I know I whine about spending money, but we had the money to repair the car and always really have the money we need for most anything we want to buy. I just really, really hate to spend it.

(I have checked.)<br /><br />Plus, they are so willing to give discounts. You get a discount for scheduling an appointment on line and I have even gotten additional discounts just for asking.<br /><br />After I wrote this post, they called that our power steering belt was dry rotted and would need to be replaced soon. I asked how much THAT was. Yes, emphasized like that. He said $14.xx. I asked, "Can't you just give it to me?" He said "I'll work something out."<br /><br />When I went to pick it up, my total bill was $423.00. How cool is THAT? We got an extra belt and it ended up being cheaper than the estimate. WooHoo!<br /><br />Oh, and the car drives like it is brand new again.Franceshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01817017829323955078noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6379327498578817385.post-17587275495189610312011-01-19T08:09:15.078-06:002011-01-19T08:09:15.078-06:00"Since we have had several months of spending..."Since we have had several months of spending like we had money."-Tis the season! I keep saying that we are cutting back but then we get hit with something.<br />That is an amazing deal!!! Really, for all that I would bring my car there and Den is a car guy. You aren't paying much in labor. Den did a complete tune up for the Kia and it was over a $100(maybe a bit more) just for the parts!Sonya Annhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01985227040902078422noreply@blogger.com
