How Single Thread Reduces Dealerships’ Liability

However, despite the presence of clear and solid laws and regulations, car repair has still been an issue due to three reasons – misunderstanding/miscommunication between the mechanic and client, the client doesn’t want to pay for the repairs, mechanic wants to overcharge by doing unauthorized repairs. There is a simple solution to all of this – maintain records.
