My silly question can I take the focus to a normal mechanic or can only a dealer service it . Service at dealer costs $380 plus whatever they say is wrong , which they seem to focus no pun lol on new tyres every service !
Sorry I’m tired of catching 2 buses that take 1 and 1/2 hours to collect the car.
Go to an independent they are cheaper and generally seem to have more knowledge than dealer mechanics.Good mechanics in dealerships tend to leave and work for better paying shops.If they don’t get poached by independents they probably aren’t much chop
