Pushy upselling, refusing to show old parts, no written estimates, or no clear pricing.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about this tool

What does the check engine light mean?

The check engine light indicates your car's computer detected an issue. It could be minor (loose gas cap) or serious (catalytic converter). Get it diagnosed promptly - many auto parts stores offer free code readings.

How do I know if I need new brakes?

Signs include squealing or grinding noises, vibration when braking, longer stopping distances, or the brake warning light. Most brake pads last 30,000-70,000 miles depending on driving habits.

When should I replace my tires?

Replace tires when tread depth reaches 2/32 inch (use the penny test), if you see cracks or bulges, or after 6-10 years regardless of tread. Uneven wear may indicate alignment issues.

How do I find a trustworthy mechanic?

Look for ASE-certified technicians, read online reviews, ask for recommendations, and get multiple quotes for major repairs. A good shop will explain repairs clearly and show you the problem.

How do I find a trustworthy auto repair shop?

When should I repair vs replace my car?

Compare repair cost to the car’s value and reliability. If repairs exceed roughly half the car’s value or the car has ongoing issues, replacing may make more sense. Consider safety and your budget.
