Before visiting a garage, compare several professionals to find the best value for money. A lower price is not always the safest choice, but comparing garages can help you understand the usual cost of the work your car needs.
Always request a written quote, especially when the repair is expected to cost more than €150. This extra step can prevent misunderstandings and give you a stronger position if the final bill does not match what was promised.
Read the repair order carefully before signing it. Do not sign a document that contains vague wording, missing prices, or work you did not approve. Keep a copy of every document related to the repair, including the repair order, the estimate, and the final invoice.
A simple oversight can lead to additional costs. The repair order and the quote are your best guarantees for repairs carried out with peace of mind. Before entrusting your car to a garage, take these precautions so you can drive away with confidence.
