I am looking for a really good mechanic that won't rip me off. I am a single mom and we all know that mechanics love to take advantage of women. I live in Columbia, MD so anywhere near there would be ideal. I have a much older car so taking it to the dealer would cost a lot. Can anyone reccommend someone that is honest and trustworthy?

Well first I need an oil change and I want to get it winter rised beacuse the winter is near. My steering seems to be a little loose while I pick up speed. I want to get the whole car looked at since I have an older car. Any suggestions. I called Dobbin like someone mentioned and they quoted me about $70.00 for an oil change and and over all look at my car. Is that good here?

I know that it's a bit far from you but we have been extremely happy with Eldersburg Car Care here in Eldersburg (Carroll County).

The car guys have a site where people post reviews of mechanics they would recommend. Hop on over there and see if you can find someone in your vicinity.

Car Talk | Mechanics Files

I would never pay seventy bucks for an oil change.
