FAQs
Daniel's Auto Repair
What happens if the vehicle has the same problem again after the repair?
At Daniel’s Auto Repair LLC, precision is our priority. If the issue reappears within the warranty period, we provide a free and priority re-evaluation based on the original diagnosis. If the failure is directly related to the service we performed, the repair is covered. If the cause is different, we explain it with complete transparency using measurements, data, and technical evidence.Why don’t you accept diesel vehicles or certain jobs on European brands?
To maintain our “we fix what others can’t” standard, we work only in the areas where we are true specialists. Therefore: We do not service diesel vehicles, as our tools and processes are optimized for gasoline engines. On American vehicles, we perform general mechanical work and advanced diagnostics. On European brands, we focus exclusively on electrical, electronic, programming, and diagnostic systems, where we guarantee efficiency and precision.How do I know if I really need an advanced diagnostic and not a simpler service?
Before charging for any diagnostic level, we assess the symptoms and explain the complexity of the case. If the issue can be resolved with a basic diagnostic, we only charge that level. We never offer unnecessary services, and every decision is backed by evidence, testing, and standardized procedures.What warranties do you offer on repairs and module programming?
We offer clear, documented warranties: Software/programming: 30 days General repairs: 90 days Specific electronic components: up to 6 months, depending on the repair We explain all exclusions—such as moisture, third-party interference, non-authorized repairs, or battery-related failures—before delivering the vehicle.What if I can’t pay for the entire service at once?
We understand that advanced repairs can be costly. That’s why we offer repair phases, each documented, explained, and signed, so you can proceed according to your budget. We do not offer credit, but we ensure full clarity on each stage and its warranty.How long does the diagnostic really take, and what happens if it takes longer than expected?
Our average diagnostic takes about 2 hours, because we prioritize precision over guesswork. If the case is more complex and additional testing is required, we notify you immediately. We maintain open communication at all times and prioritize quality over speed.How do you protect my personal information and vehicle data?
All sensitive information is stored in a secure, encrypted digital system with restricted access and regular backups. We never share your information with third parties or use unsafe communication channels.What kind of parts do you use, and how do you verify their quality?
We only use original parts or components from suppliers with at least 85% proven reliability. Every part is physically and electronically tested before installation, especially modules and electronic components.How much does the diagnostic cost, and is it deducted from the total repair?
The diagnostic has a fixed cost based on the level of complexity, because it is a specialized technical service that includes in-depth analysis, advanced tools, and expert evaluation. The diagnostic cost is not deducted from the repair total, as it is an independent service that ensures accuracy before performing any work.Why don’t you offer discounts on diagnostics or services?
Because quality should never be discounted. Instead of lowering prices, we offer: Personalized technical guidance Free post-service follow-up Priority scheduling for returning customers Our pricing reflects the precision, experience, and advanced technology required to solve problems other shops cannot.What should I do if I have an emergency outside business hours?
We currently operate under a fixed schedule. If an emergency occurs outside business hours, you may send us a message or text with the details of the issue, and your case will be addressed as a priority once the shop opens. We understand how stressful unexpected failures can be, which is why we always recommend preventive diagnostics and regular maintenance to reduce the risk of emergencies.
