Are Michigan mechanics good at fixing cars?

Answer 1

As with any other profession, some are good and some are not. My advice is to look for a ASE Certified mechanic. Here is how to find a good mechanic in any state. Step 1:

Ask friends who have your make or model car if they would recommend their mechanic. Step 2:

Get a recommendation of certified mechanics from an auto club like AAA, if you're a member. You can also find mechanics with valuable certification from the National Institute for Auto Service Excellence (ASEcert.org). Step 3:

If you have a specialty vehicle or sports car, try to get a recommendation from a local auto club--the Miata Club, for example. Step 4:

Find a dealer that has the most service awards from the manufacturer. Those mechanics have been manufacturer certified. Step 5:

Check with the Better Business Bureau (bbb.org) to learn whether a garage has any strikes against it. Ask how the shop charges before you have any work done.
