Many car dealerships face the problem of customers shifting to independent auto shops in hopes of greener pastures. Folks assume dealerships are too unreasonable to charge a fair price for the authentic and legitimate auto services they offer. And hats off to the independent auto shops for managing to disguise their inflated prices as ‘affordable’.
Car owners move to independent service usually around the time their original warranties end with their dealership — the reason being the presumption that service not covered by warranty might be too costly. We will explain just how flawed this concept is in the long run.
-
Dealerships Offer Dedicated Service
- They provide high-quality OEM components for repair. Each component is designed to fit the car.
- The auto repair shop’s experience, expertise, and commitment to quality are all above standard.
- ASE certified & manufacturer-approved auto experts & mechanics are available, not always found at local repair shops.
- Dealerships are part of a larger automotive ecosystem, which means that the most up-to-date automobile servicing technology is available at every location.
- Has the community’s confidence. Customers can entrust their automobiles to auto technicians who regularly keep their certifications up to date.

Original Equipment Manufactured Parts
Only the parts designed for your particular vehicle are provided for replacements at a dedicated car dealership. At local auto shops, you can’t expect such a level of service because half the time, you worry about being ripped off on a new part at an already inflated price.
-
Certified Trained Mechanics
Those auto mechanics carrying digital tablets and wearing clean gear are not grandstanding; they actually know their job. They are tested & trained to diagnose car issues & validate appropriate repairs to ensure your car runs instead of becoming a faulty cesspool (which is what independent auto shops do to your car!). Dealership auto mechanics are held accountable by excellence in customer service appraisals, so they don’t mess with your car.
-
Proper Service Intervals
Dealerships are well informed about the car they are servicing because they have documented regular service history. And with a new customer, they carry out the proper diagnostics to ensure the car gets the appropriate service as per its mileage. At independent auto shops, you might have been paying for full but get a basic service, then wonder why your car broke down. It gets costlier every time you visit an independent shop.
-
You Get Warranties & Specials
With new parts purchased from a dealership, you can avail of financing, warranties, & service specials that cost as much as they cover in quality service. You can’t expect the same level of service at an independent auto shop because, most times, you won’t even get a detailed invoice as to what was replaced and what part was it. Dealerships are less confusing!
