Am new to the Trenton/Woodhaven area and wondering if anyone can recommend a good auto mechanic in the area. |

Welcome to the forum Frank! A friend of mine is a car genius, but takes his car to a place called Coopers Garage for repairs that he can't do himself, and recommends them highly. They're not quite as far south as you, but given how highly they were recommended, I thought I would mention it to you. Coopers is at the south end of Dearborn Heights, just before you get to Taylor. He repaired my brakes and did a great job at a reasonable cost. Sorry, I know it's not exactly your neck of the woods, but I thought they were reasonably close enough that I would mention it. Coopers Garage 313-278-0408 21244 Van Born Rd, Dearborn Heights |

Larry Hughes' Garage on Ford Rd between Middlebelt and Inkster Rds in Garden City (not exactly downriver)is fabulous! They are honest and reliable. They are also reasonable. Ask for Steve to work on your car. They are a small operation but will get your car back on the road in a jiffy. I am female and have never been "taken" by them. They are an honest crew. |

Thanks for the replies. It's good to know of honest people for car repairs when you're new to an area. |
