Before the shop sees your Legacy

You approve the shop's quote before any work. We can deliver a rental to you while your car is at the shop. You agree everything with the shop before work begins.
A car while yours is in the shop
If the repair runs long, keep the rental longer. We can have a rental ready the day your car goes in. Your offer shows the delivery fee if you want the car brought to you.
Getting a clear quote
Ask for the work to be listed line by line on the invoice. Ask when the car will be ready and how the shop will tell you. Ask for a written estimate before any work starts.
Between shop visits
Replace wiper blades when they streak; it matters in rain and snow. Look at the tire tread before long trips. Note the mileage when each service is done, so you know when the next is due.
