Woman with car trouble

Need to have some repair work done on your car? If you’re like me, the looming questions begin – where do I take my car? How much is this going to cost? How do I know I’m not overpaying? What is a carburetor? The list of questions goes on and on.

There’s a website that can help take the guess work out maintaining your car. Repairpal.com “gives you independent and unbiased repair estimates, user ratings and reviews, plus advice you can’t get anywhere else.” You can get the answers to all your questions regarding car maintenance at this site. The only thing this site doesn’t do is tell you what’s wrong with your car…for that you need a trusted mechanic or a second opinion.

The site is very user friendly, simple enter the make, model, and year of your car. Then you type of service and your zip code. RepairPal will give you a range of what the service should cost for where you live depending if you get the service done from a dealership or an independent shop. It even breaks down the cost by parts and labor so you know what to expect when you get the service done.

If you still have questions RepairPal can probably answer those too. In addition to the service estimate RepairPal offers a listing of service centers in your area and information about the service you need done (ie. why it broke, recommendations, etc). RepairPal would also be very useful if you’re in the market to buy a new car. If you’re debating between two different cars check RepairPal to compare the cost of regular maintenance to determine which car is more affordable to maintain in the long run.

Before you spend hundreds of dollars fixing your car, take a few minutes and explore RepairPal – it could save you money and you may learn something about your car too.
