What the rules say

Many drivers think only the dealer can service a car under warranty. Federal warranty rules limit that. Auto repair shops are also a Local Services Ads category, and local ranking leans on relevance, distance and popularity.

No warrantor may condition the continued validity of a warranty on the use of only authorized repair service and/or authorized replacement parts for non-warranty service and maintenance

Illustrative

The questions drivers ask, each with a page that answers it.

Questions repair shops ask

Can you explain warranty work on my site?

Yes, in plain words, with a link to the federal rule. A page that answers it can bring in drivers who thought only the dealer could help.

Can customers book online?

Yes. Online booking with reminders before service is due, so the desk handles fewer calls and more cars come back on time.

Should I run Local Services Ads?

Where they fit. Auto repair shops are one of Google's Local Services Ads categories, and you pay only for leads. Offer will tell you on the first call whether they suit you.

Can you promise more cars in the bays?

No. Nobody can honestly promise jobs or a top spot, and Google says there is no way to pay for a better local ranking. We work on what it weighs: relevance, distance and popularity.

Will you ask my customers for reviews?

We set it up so your desk can: a link or QR code with each invoice, and a reply to every review. We never offer anything in exchange for one, which Google bans.

Talk to Offer before you decide anything.

You'll talk with Offer, not a sales rep. A short call, no pitch deck.

Pick a time on the contact page, or call. Offer will ask about your business, then tell you honestly what he'd do first.
