Sales driven repair shops
AUTHOR: Typhon - ()
SUBMITTED: Sunday, May 05, 2013
POSTED: Sunday, May 05, 2013Precision tune's bussiness model works all on a precentages structure. Many of these "Shop-in-a-box" set ups work like this, not just Pecision Tune. If you pay $100 at the counter, the part better not have cost the shop more than 18 of those dollars or the store manager will have to "make it up on the next one." The store level employees share the financial burden of the company with every coupon. The low store level pay is a large cause of the dicey quality that comes out of these places.
This type of bussiness structor is, IMO, the most damaging form to use in automotive repair. It is the use of THIS overall business structure that needs to dissapear from this industry, where peoples' lives can hang in the balance.

how much ?
AUTHOR: Kwtrucks - (USA)
SUBMITTED: Sunday, November 04, 2012
POSTED: Sunday, November 04, 2012Just because you saw it online for a reasonable price ( which you dont give for some reason) You would have to wait to order and ship, or find a local store that had it in stock. Or you could pay a markup fee usually 15-20% to them as they have it in stock, ready to be put on

DISCOUNT SERVICE
AUTHOR: Bubba Lee - (Canada)
SUBMITTED: Monday, June 25, 2012
POSTED: Monday, June 25, 2012The idea is to get your car in and look at it so they can find something profitable to repair.
The mechanic does not get paid for doing your oil change.
The extra part is more expensive than the cheapo filter they have figured into the service and since the idea is to find extra stuff to repair, they want to sell you the part and get the mark up on the part, it has gotten to the point that we ( A unrelated Dealership in Canada) no longer install Customer supplied parts, this is because the is no profit in the labour portion of the bill.
Finally these special discount places generally pay the mechanic per repair and a commission on what he finds top repair on your car. So a great way to have the repair center abuse your trust and have an unscrupulous mechanic and service writer to sell you lots of un-needed repairs.
Please do not fall for these discount service offers, if they are not charging what it costs to do the service, then they are trying to sell you extra service and use a busness model designed to take advantage of you.
