Me, I've got an independant mechanic I trust. The dealer can have it if I ever get a car with warranty repairs--in other words, ONLY if it's free. Other than that, it goes to my mechanic. I had a Volvo dealer charge me $400 to replace a sensor. It didn't work properly, and he told me it was the computer--for $700 he would replace that. I told him thanks but no thanks. 4 years later, we decided to get it settled once and for all (intermittent check engine light). Our mechanic took it apart, told us it had been put together wrong, fixed it, and charged us way less than $400. The computer is fine.
