A Honda auto mechanic or car mechanic is a mechanic who specializes in automobile maintenance, repair, and sometimes modification. A mechanic may be knowledgeable in working on all parts of a variety of car makes or may specialize either in a specific area or in a specific make of car. In repairing cars, their main role is to diagnose the problem accurately and quickly. They often have to quote prices for their customers before commencing work or after partial disassembly for inspection. The mechanic uses both electronic means of gathering data as well as their senses. Their job may involve the repair of a specific part or the replacement of one or more parts as assemblies.
Some mechanics are ASE certified, which is a standardized method of testing skill level. While it's not required by law for a mechanic to be certified, some companies only hire or promote employees who have passed ASE tests. The technology used in automobiles changes very rapidly and the mechanic must be prepared to learn these new technologies and systems. The auto mechanic has a physically demanding job, often exposed to temperature extremes and well as lifting heavy objects and staying in uncomfortable positions for extended periods as well as exposure to gasoline, asbestos, and other toxic chemicals.
Know Who is Working on Your Car
Unlike many Honda service centers in Boston where your car may be handed to a different
mechanic each time, at The Civic Center you can rest in the knowledge
that all work is done by The Civic Center owner; Lenny Mariano, a Honda and Toyota Specialist. Many
shops hire junior mechanics to perform light duty work such as oil
changes and tire balancing. At The Civic Center all auto repair work is done by the proprietor, Lenny
Mariano to ensure that everything is done properly.
"Being a female, I have been
ripped off way too many times by mechanics
claiming to be honest. One day my battery light came on and I panicked.
We happened to be in Winthrop and my friend suggested I take it to
Lenny at the Civic Center. He told me he was the most honest person he
knew. Lenny was a pleasure to deal with. He was so understanding of my
fears. He told me he would check the car out and give me a quote before
he did any work. He called sooner than I expected and told me exactly
what was wrong. He even gave me the option of fixing the important
stuff now and waiting a couple of months for the rest. I was
contemplating selling the car but he told me it was a good solid car
and would last at least another ten years. I decided to let him fix
everything at once feeling confident that the car was worth it. When I
picked up the car the next day, he charged me $100.00 less than his
quote. Lenny is kind, considerate and totally honest. I have finally
found my honest mechanic! When I do decide to buy my next car, it will
definitely be another Toyota or Honda because Lenny specializes in
those makes. Thanks Lenny for making me feel safe and secure when I
drive my car." reviewer #35652
