Owners of used cars in New York<\/a> have reason to celebrate; repair shops in your home city generally provide customers with fair quotes for auto repair. In a recent study by AutoMD.com, titled Advocacy for Repair Shop Fairness, researchers ranked New York City as the 20th best large U.S. city for auto repair.<\/p>\n

To conduct the research, AutoMD.com had mystery shoppers stop by over 600 maintenance shops in the 50 largest U.S. cities and request a quote on a typical auto repair job – a front brake pad replacement for a 2004 Ford<\/a> Focus. The top 50 list was calculated based on each city’s average repair affordability, price disparity between shops in the same city and general shop integrity.<\/p>\n

New York City ranked 16th in repair affordability, 32nd in price disparity and 19th in shop integrity.<\/p>\n

“Doing your research is critical to getting a fair shake at the repair shop,” said AutoMD President Shane Evangelist. “Fortunately, car owners now have access to online tools so they can compare local repair shops, establish a local market repair invoice price and make sure that they get a fair deal.”<\/p>\n

Overall, Memphis topped AutoMD’s list, while Chicago was ranked dead last.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
