My care needs some attention and I shall use this to check a few places out. We drove through Mountain View the other day as my hubby has applied for a job there and Ron is there too! Why is everything about the Bay area right now - am I getting messages from the Universe? Would mean moving my business also but that's possible.... Thanks for a great checklist Donna!

We rely so much on our metal horses. Great info, thanks Donna.

I have a shop that I love but only after trying several different ones. I think this list would have helped me find one quicker. I think asking for references may also could be added to the list.

I am happy this was useful information for you. Sometimes dealers are not as interested in what is best for the customer concerning vehicle maintenance. They are really most interested in selling new cars! Thank you, Irene! I am happy this was useful information for you.

I have a tendency to take my Prius back to the dealer just to be sure that I get someone who supposedly knows what they are doing. Now, with the help of your check list, perhaps I can find someone local and a bit less expensive. Good to have at least a basic knowledge of a machine that I spend so much time in!

I am assuming I do not even have to ask these questions about your shop. All good questions I would never have even considered. Am due for a service very soon. I will look you up! Cheryl Hi Donna,

I myself am "vehicle repair challenged" so I'm glad to pick a shop that will help guide me to understanding how my car should be properly cared for, both at the shop and out of shop.

I'm usually a great problem solver when it comes to life's challenges but when my car brakes down I turn into a helpless wimp? Your advice is going to help me a lot. Donna,
