University Tire - have all my cars worked on there and have never been disappointed. Spent a year in Baltimore and experienced how much mechanics charge there for the same work.
At the new car dealer for the make of the car. Using cheap off brand (Fram, Napa, Firestone) oil filters is inviting a ruined engine that the warranty won't cover! Take it from someone who knows
The dealer, becuase I got oil changes for life. On the older cars, I use C&P Service center on E. Main Street in Salisbury. Wayne takes care of you and its not a corporation. Keep my dollars local.
4:16....roflmfao! I do ours myself. Gives me the opportunity to get undrneath and cjeck everything out. I see any leaks before they become serious and I grease every fitting. I don't have to depend on someone who is overworked and underpaid to be sure my car is getting the best care possible.
Without a doubt... I go to Reevens Auto Service located at the corner of Rt. 13 and Isabella Rd., beside Outten Bros. Furniture. I'm a long time mechanic & try to do minor maint on my own, but if it's more than I can handle due to my military injuries or I simply don't have the time, then I go there!!! They are very thurough, professional, reasonably priced, and most of all, HONEST! A while back I was locked in 4X4 due to snow. Suddenly I felt serious jolts in the front end & heard nasty thumping/popping sounds. I figured the front axle or gear box was trash. I brought it in, told them what I thought, & was ready to hear news of a new front end for about $1500 to $2K when an hour later Margaret called & said the truck was ready and the bill was $20!!! WHAT??? $20??? I flipped! She said the problem was a break caliper bold came out and was hitting the wheel while making a turn. They easily could have taken what I said & sold me a new front end but didn't. They said honesty, return business, & my word of mouth advertising was much more valuable. How can I NOT brag about that?! Also, if you do have a problem, Reeven will jump right in and make sure everything is set to YOUR satisfaction. I will NOT go anywhere else!! I urge you to call and NO I'M NOT GETTING PAID FOR THIS. Actually, they have no idea that I am writing this. Also, they are great at handling after market and extended warranties (No you are NOT always required to take the vehicle back to where you bought it). I urge you to at least give then a call. There is never a charge to just talking to them and they always enjoy trying to help! Reeven's Auto: 410-534-2425 (Ask for Margaret) Address is 501 N Salisbury Blvd. Salisbury 21801. Have a great weekend all!
The new Autobahn Service Center on Rt 13 South in Fruitland. The owner, actually uses surgical gloves when he works on cars. He said its due to the electronics in the high end BMW's and imports. Literally, Charles is The PREMIER Auto Doctor.
