Dealing with Car Dents

| среда, 26 августа 2009 г.

Car dents happen to the best of us, and when it happens to your own car, you may, or not know what to do.  Depending on how big the dent is, this will determine how much you’re probably going to pay.

Head to a collision shop

The first thing that you may want to do is head to the collision shops.  All collision shops are going to give you a free estimate when it comes to repairing anything on your car.  If they are going to charge you for an estimate, I would run away fast.  Check out at least three shops, and see who has the best rate.

Do it yourself

If you have a smaller dent, you may want to try it yourself.  You’ve seen the TV infomercials such as the “Ding King”, and “Pops a Dent”.  Do these type of products work?  Some say they do, and some say they dont’.  It all depends on the make, and model.  Look at Amazon’s list of the best car dent remover kits, and you be the judge if you want to repair it.

Try other options online

Doing a search on Google for “fixing car dents” brings up a lot of pages that have some great how-to videos when it comes to fixing dents.  You’re going to find that most body shops are going to want a lot of money just for a simple ding.  That ding could look like a $25 fix, but it will end up costing you over $500.

Try some of these options when you’ve come across a ding on your car.  See what works for you, and see if these options can help you out.

Automobile Repair: Finding the Best

| вторник, 25 августа 2009 г.

If you own a car, there’s probably going to be a time when you have to bring your car in for some sort of service.  Whether you go in for an oil change, or you go in for new brakes, you want to know exactly who you’re working with, so that you don’t get ripped off.

Know their experience: You don’t want to work with people who don’t know what they are doing.  Instead, you want to work with people that have a lot of experience.  When you head to an auto repair shop for the first time, ask them how long they have been in business, and see some of their credentials.

Customer service: You don’t want to be treated like garbage when you walk into a shop.  Instead, you want to work with someone that is friendly, and know what they are talking about.  If they can’t answer your questions, you may want to look elsewhere.

Always compare prices: Prices are usually the main motive when people bring in their cars for repair.  Make sure that you check with at least three other shops before taking yours to a new one.  You may find that the new one is a rip off, and not even worth it.  Instead, compare prices, but don’t always base your decision solely on a price estimate.

When it comes time to find a new auto repair shop, make sure that you follow a few points.  If you do so, you will soon find out that you’ll be able to find the best repair shop in town.  Always do your research, so that you don’t get ripped off!
