[quote=Anonymous]I've got an 11 year Nissan Murano. I've typically taken it to a dealer because it's so much more convenient -- the dealer is within 5 minutes of my office and I can take a shuttle back and forth. There is not an easy way for me to get to an independent mechanic from my house and unless I rent a car I can't get back and forth easily. Having said that, the drivetrain is no longer under warranty and I'm running up against some bigger repairs for which the dealership quotes are astronomical. Decided last week that the the cost outweighed the convenience for some of these items and went to the trouble of going to the independent mechanic for some items for which the quoted price was 1/2 of the dealership (strut replacement). I saw Mr. Tire named above. I tried one of those by my office in Sterling for an oil change and tire rotation once before. They lost my wheel lock key and when I picked up the car something was seriously out of alignment. Never again. [/quote]
