DFW Service Help

Does anyone have any suggestions on a reputable shop, other than the stealerships, to do basic maintenance.

I live a couple of miles from Sewell Hummer of Plano, the convenience is great but I feel like I have been raped, my ass hurts every time I get my car out of the shop.

i live in the same area. once mine goes out of warranty this would be good info to have.

I've bought a dozen new vehicles in the last 20 years. With a greasegun an oilcan and a couple jugs of oil I rarely went to dealer. If you keep records of oil changes etc your covered for major items. I probably only returned to dealer once for every 2 vehicles. I've even done alighnments with flat garage floor bubble level ,a couple straight edges and a tape measure . Course a full set of tools and a decent size garage helps. Regards The Rebel

Try Classic in Grapevine. I purchased my H2 from them and always received A+ service.

Sewell in Plano and Dallas is the biggest ripoff in the business! Avoid them at all cost!

Unforunately, I don't have the garage, the cool set of tools, nor the time to spend on DIY projects.

I have 78K miles, factory warranty is no longer. I will need more than just an oil change in the near future. I have already had to replace the bearings and an ac leak that has cost me a pretty penny at Sewell Hummer of Plano.

I would love to save the money and DIY but thats not an option.

Someone must know a good mechanic in this area. Otherwise I will have to try Classic Hummer and see if they are any better.

4 Wheel parts in Plano does a good job at 1/3 the price of Sewell. A lot of people use them so you will have to make an appointment. They do good work though.

yeah, i second that. they did a bunch of work on my old truck. but they will mainly do suspension stuff and off road stuff. engine work is probably a no go though.
