I jumped on the DriverSide bandwagon early in their beta period and was patient while the company sorted out the normal bugs that exist when any company tests their site before officially going live.
Driverside.com offers service schedules for all your cars, recall alerts, message boards and now a free Ask A Mechanic feature.
Looking around the site on our knockabout Ford Fusion, I was thrilled ot see the new feature that lets anyone who registers for free ask an impartial mechanic about a car problem.
Cars, like houses, are one of the those things most consumers seem to wish they knew more about because they’re so integral to our lives yet have strange rules. A free service that answers questions from anyone can only help consumers since the mechanics involved (who have bios on the site) aren’t getting a commssion from your local garage.
Even in beta, this site is worth registering for now.
