“Congratulations on your move! It can take some time to feel comfortable in your new town, but some time soon it will feel like home.
There isn’t just one good resource to find a great mechanic in your area. Instead, you have to use as many resources that you can find. This might include:
Suggestions from friends and family
The Better Business Bureau
Since getting personal referrals isn’t a reliable path for you, online searches are a good option. Read reviews online, check out local forums, or even find some online Facebook groups.
If you can combine two or more of these sources, you should find a great mechanic in your area. If you just moved to a new area, you can also ask your car insurance
company, as they tend to work with reputable mechanics to lower their costs and reduce the chance of additional issues. If you haven’t already gotten in touch with your car insurance company about your move, now is a good time to do so. You will want to update them about your new address, and it’s possible they may need to update your policy to meet your new state’s minimum insurance requirements.
