Do It Yourself Auto repair vs Taking to the Experts

0 Flares Filament.io Made with Flare More Info'> 0 Flares ×

I was not raised in a home that had an excess of money. My dad (and even great grandpa) did a lot of auto repair on their own. This amazes me because it was pre Youtube and they somehow figured it out. They (still) did their own oil changes and such. I wish I was more savvy and could do some of these things. I have came to the realization that I can do a lot of small things, but the big things need to be trusted to the experts. Men (and women) who are trained to do auto repairs and maintenance do this all day and can knock out (what would be to me) big jobs seamlessly. I can change an air filter without a lot of stress, but I am not going to attempt an oil change.

I have found that often times by the time you purchase everything you need to do the job, you could have easily taken it to get done by a trusted mechanic. Places like Junction Auto Chrysler Dodge Jeep even offer coupons on their website to save you money. I have learned it is better to stay in my lane and do what I do best and leave the vehicle stuff to the experts. Besides, with four kids, a job and all that I have to get done, I need to know it was done right and backed by a service guarantee.

  1. I agree most of them just change the oil and filter, Nothing else unless its stated that they will, and in most cases its forgotten or overlooked by the mechanic if your getting the flat rate cost.
