As a woman, I have always felt so intimidated by going to an
auto repair shop, because of my fear of being "taken for a
ride". Friends have told me that the only way to get past
my fear is to drive around and get a few different
estimates. Well, it worked, because not only was the
estimate at DCP lower than the others I got in Yonkers, but
also Damon at DCP was patient enough to carefully explain to
me why I needed a new catalytic converter for my 1998 Ford.
I noticed that he wasn't just spending time with me because
of the female factor, because there were two other men
hanging out in the careworn little office, waiting for their
cars, and chatting happily away with Damon, too. It was a
friendly place, and I felt safe about the estimate and the
parts and repairs being fair and accurate. And I was right.
Since I did not have all of the funds I needed for the
catalytic converter at the time, and therefore could not
pass inspection emissions check, Damon let me leave the car
there until I had the funds, in order to avoid getting a
ticket.
I wonder why getting my old reliable car repaired is such an
emotional stress-test for me. Same with buying or selling a
car, and buying the right oil. All so invested with
emotions. Is that part of being female? Or, is it the same
for everyone who has no knowledge of cars?
Well, now I am relieved to not have that problem any longer.
I can just go to DCP and Damon.
