Three Tips for a Successful Oklahoma Auto Shop Visit

Three Tips for a Successful Oklahoma Auto Shop Visit

| By: Christian Brothers Automotive

1. Communicate Everything

Clear communication is key when it comes to car issues. If your Volkswagen or Hyundai is making a, “weird sound,” the mechanic may not know where to start. Giving your auto repair technician as much information as possible will speed up the process. It may be easier to write down exactly what’s going on with your vehicle. Describe any leaks, smells or specific sounds. Here’s a list of terms that are commonly used to explain automotive symptoms:

• Backfire – a loud noise that comes from the engine or the tailpipe
• Bucking – felt when the transmission slips as it changes gears
• Knocking – a fast rattling sounds that’s heard when accelerating
• Misfire – when fuel in the engine cylinders fails to ignite properly
• Sluggish – how it feels driving a car that does not accelerate smoothly

2. Find a Regular Auto Repair Shop

You can build a strong relationship with your mechanic just as you might do with your doctor. Find a local Oklahoma auto repair shop that fits your needs and go there whenever you have a problem or maintenance need. The staff will learn your name and know every detail about your vehicle under the hood. Remember, people do business with people.

3. Ask Questions

If you are in a time crunch or you’re curious about a specific service do not hesitate to ask! A good auto repair shop will happily answer your question as clearly as possible. If time is of the essence, feel free to ask how long the wait is or when you should expect your car to be ready. At Christian Brothers Automotive Warwick, we even have a local shuttle that can drop you off at home or work while your vehicle is being worked on.

As a customer and a driver, you should always feel comfortable with your auto Oklahoma auto shop of choice. Give us a call today if you have any questions or would like to schedule a complimentary inspection. Experience the nice difference!
