Therefore regular checkups are crucial to keep these items in good condition all the time.

The best way to prevent overpay is to be present when your vehicle is being fixed until it is done. If you leave your car with the mechanic, it gives them the will to do as they please with your vehicle and sometimes they may do a repair on some parts that do not need repair and charge you heavily for them. The mechanic should always inform you of any additional repair that you had not discussed with him before he does it. He should also provide you a written estimate of the cost.

Before any repair is done to your wheels, always ask to be shown the places that should be replaced in your vehicle so that you know that it is broken and preferably have a rough estimate of what it would cost you to repair it. This also ensures that the mechanic does not lie to you.

Additional work sometimes brings about extra charges that you only find out when you want to pick your car. Before allowing the extra work, you should request for an approximate cost. Moreover, if you stay in a town where different shops provide these services, ask about their prices and diagnosis so that you know what is troubling your car form different companies and the prices may also reduce because of competition.

Two to three shops are enough to give you a good estimate on the cost of repair so that you can plan well. It may take time, but it would surely save on cash. There are repair shops that have fixed prices through a computer software, but there are some that have varied prices depending on labor and sometimes time.

Every vehicle has the manufactures recommended a schedule for maintenance. This helps you to plan for the cost that you would be charged and anytime you will be overcharged you will know. Sometimes in case of an accident and the wheels gets damaged, the mechanic should take you through each item that needs to be replaced or repaired and tell you the cost of it.
