Protect yourself from garage scams!

Cars and other sorts of vehicles are an important means of transport in our daily lives.

We expect that when they break down, the garages to which we take the auto,and the mechanics to whom we entrust our car, will deal with the problem in a professional manner.

Most of us at some time in our lives, as vehicle owners, have run across less than honest mechanics. We get billed for work that isn't done, or is done incorrectly; we get charged for work that isn't even necessary and parts are changed (and charged for) that have nothing to do with the car's current problem.

The experienced technicians behind this web site want to help protect you against the unscrupulous garages and mechanics who just want to part you from your money, and for whom "customer service" is a phrase of which they have never heard!

You will find lots of useful information on this site, plus links to articles, garage scams, auctions and other interesting sections. Please use them. We are here to help you!
