I have had quite a bit of experience getting cars fixed and since I ALWAYS lease my cars, I have had to make sure any/all repairs were done perfectly.

IF, whatever you are getting fixed is UNDER WARRANTY still, then you SHOULD take it to the Dealership.

IF it is NOT UNDER WARRANTY, then I would heavily Recommend that YOU NOT TAKE IT TO THE DEALERSHIP, typically Prices for Fixing Anything at a Dealership is AT LEAST 50% MORE expensive than getting it fixed anywhere else.

Example:

Someone hit my 2006 Cadillac Escalade, on the passenger side Front Headlight and a large dent and scratches between the Front Headlight & Door. The quote from the dealership was $2745.68

I took it to 2 body shops and the quotes from them were around $1000 ($850.00 from one and $1100 from the other).

So I would recommend NOT getting your car fixed from the dealership if Budget is of ANY Concern to you. But Make SURE to do your homework and choose a good place to get any work done on your car(s). Also Make sure you go to AT LEAST 2 Different places (ideally you should go to 3 Places) to get a quote on whatever work you need done.

Avoid Dealerships?

Avoid taking your car to the dealership for car repairs, if you can. More often than not they will charge you much more than an auto repair shop. If you do take your car to a dealership, do your homework before you go in. More often than not, if you know what is wrong with your car, you will pay less to have it fixed.
