Duffy's Garage

I have been very stressed lately about having to take my car into a mechanic. I have received some very high quotes from places regarding all the work (they say) I need done on my car. I knew that by owning an import, you take your chances on repairs. They are not cheap. Luckily, as I was begrudgingly about to pay $100 just to get it looked at by momentum, one of my Rotaract pals gave me her friend's info at Duffy Garage. It was like Christmas came early. Not only do they specialize in imports, but the owner is super friendly and more important, super honest. I brought him my car's file (yes, I am that anal) to show all the repairs, and suggested repairs for the car. He was stunned by what I was quoted and the corresponding prices. He checked out everything for me, and all the car needed some fluids. It was dehydrated. He explained to me everything I needed to know about the importance of certain repairs, and led me on my way. I can explain how relieved I was. So helpful. Seriously, if any of you have an import and need work done, call Brad Duffy.

*Story update. One of the suggested items Brad wanted me to do was to get the car fully aligned and check tire pressure. Luckily for me, ive got a lifetime alignment from Firestone. I take it in there at 7am this morning, only to be called an hour later and be told I have nails in two tires. One is repairable, the other needs to be replaced. F. Somehow I knew I would not leave there without paying them something. boo.
