Car Repair Prices Going Up - It's starting

Article Category: Automotive

Author Name: C.H. Johnson

The proverbial $19.95 oil change special has started to disappear except at the shops that have no marketing capability or that are so desperate for work that they are willing to "Pay you" to change your oil.

Prices are starting to climb to the consumer for auto repair in all areas. Many shops that previously gave away some computer diagnostics as a marketing tool have seen the light. More and more of the better shops are now charging for this.

Is there anything the mechanic can do to help?

Unfortunately, no. The garages are seeing their costs increase and they are no longer "eating these increases" as they did in the past. They are passing them along to the consumer. They are also taking this opportunity to increase their labor charges, but they are not sharing these increased labor charges with the mechanic.

The mechanic as we have see earlier is being squeezed by literally everyone in the industry from the uniform supply companies, tool manufacturers, data suppliers, all the way to the parts and car manufacturers.

You could share this information with your mechanic, so that he will know where to get a professional quality obd2 scan tools or factory repair manuals at lots better pricing. This of course saves him money and indirectly saves you money.

Cardone industries has always had a reputation with professional mechanics of having some of the worst parts in the industry, but the other manufacturers are catching up because they are manufacturing parts too fast and this leads to increased defective parts.

Unfortunately, the mechanic and consumer are their quality control Guinea Pigs, as most times a defective part can only be known after it is installed correctly.

The mechanic rarely gets paid to replace a defective part, so all the time to do the job the second time he receives no compensation for. And if there is a problem that requires the car or parts manufacturers' support system where he must follow their testing procedures to get a no charge defective replacement part, he must do so precisely.

The parts suppliers like Autozone, Advanced, O'Reilley, CarQuest, and Napa have systems in place to compensate for the labor to replace defective parts. They don't tell the shops about this for obvious reasons. However their procedures typically require the business to fill out forms, attach copies of the original purchase receipt and wait up to 6 months for the determination of whether they will pay or not.

If they decide to pay, they usually pay only a very small percentage of the labor and the shop usually keeps it all since the required documentation takes so much staff time to complete. Or the mechanic has left the company or they forget to pass his share to him.
