Auto Repair Salt Lake City, Tires Salt Lake City: Trusting Your Auto Repair Shop

Consumer confidence in auto repair shops may be higher than you assume. According to a new survey by the Consumer Reports National Research Center (based on 1,699 random, nationwide telephone interviews of adult car owners surveyed from November 3-7, 2011), vehicle owners put a lot of faith in their chosen car repair shops:

·         -83% of those involved in repair decisions saying they are confident they’ll get the right car maintenance and repair work done for the right price;

·         -85% were satisfied with the quality and pricing of their auto repair facility;

·         -91% trust their car repair shop;

·        - Over 50% completely trust their auto repair shop;

The survey also found:

·        - 37% take their cars to independent repair shops;

·       -30% take their car to dealerships;

·         -11% take their cars to national brand repair chains;

Maintenance and Repair:

The survey found that, on average, owners plan to keep their current car for another five years (at a time when the average car in America is 9 years old). The survey showed that 98% of  car owners depend upon proper maintenance and repair to keep their vehicle operating properly:

·         -77% take their car in for regular maintenance and repair;

·         -21% are “do-it-yourself” maintenance and repair car owners

Even with a high level of trust, consumers do their research before bringing the car to the shop, and many wish they had more information available. The survey showed 56% wished they had more information going into the auto repair shop.
