Before you visit your mechanic, it’s a good idea to write down
any problems you’ve noticed so that you don’t forget
important details to leave with the mechanic.
If your car has been serviced recently in a different shop,
bring along the repair slips.

A log may also help your mechanic
diagnose problems with your car.

Which happened first, the noise in your front suspension or the
shimmy in your steering?
That kind of information may help your mechanic piece together
what’s going on with your car.

Try to be specific when talking about your car’s problems.
Explain when the problem began.

For example: Did the problem happen after hitting a pothole?
If there's a leak, try to explain what the leak is and how much
has leaked.
So you're not stuck paying for additional repairs that you didn't
request but they may claim that is necessary.

If you would like to write down any problems you’ve noticed so
that you don’t forget important details to leave with the mechanic,
you may print out our Vehicle Service Write-Up Sheet to fill out
and take with you when you take your car in to be serviced.

Each time you notice a problem with your car, log it.

You may print out as many copies
as you wish.
