The website is called RepairPal and was just launched this week. What makes the site useful is its ability to provide you with the correct estimate of how much the cost of your repairs should be. All you need to do is just enter the repairs that need to be done, the vehicle you own and the area where you live. Once the following info has been entered, RepairPal will then give you an estimated amount on how much the cost of repairs should be. So how reliable are the website’s estimates? Well, aside from being based on a number of sources, the data provided by RepairPal is also based on the labor cost estimator tables that were only previously available to mechanics.
On top of being able to estimate the cost of repairs, RepairPal also provides expert advice regarding a specific problem. This comes in handy since it can be used to compare the advice given to you by the mechanic. So if you have this weird feeling that you’re being jerked around by a mechanic, don’t hesitate to get a second opinion by using RepairPal.
