When it comes to Ford repairs, it’s important to get the work done by a team you can trust. Communication is key when it comes to getting the repairs you and your Ford vehicle deserve.

Here are a few simple steps you can take when talking to your mechanic about vehicle repair needs.

Ask About Certifications

There are several different types of repair shop certifications, but the most common is the ASE or Automotive service Excellence Certification. Make sure you look into certifications and qualifications before moving forward with a repair team.

Have They Worked on Your Vehicle?

Different vehicles have different repair needs, so you want to make sure you’re partnering with a team that’s well-versed in your make and model. Ask them if they’ve worked on your type of vehicle, including the age, make, and model, and if they’ve dealt with your specific type of repair needs.

Ask About Estimates

If you’re comparing prices, many repair shops will offer free estimates. Make sure to get the estimate in writing, to protect yourself when it comes time to schedule repairs.

Be Direct

You don’t have be an automotive expert to share your concerns about the vehicle. Let your mechanic know about scents, sounds, and other indications of damage or wear, so they can get to the root of the problem right away.
