Default Mechanic in Lafayette
Anyone know of a GOOD mechanic in Lafayette??

Have two things that I want checked out. Called the ford dealership and they said it would be $180 to give me the diagnosis for both problems...

Any other options?

I think Auto zone will scan your truck for free

Scott's on Ambassador Caffery, Big tan buildings just north of the Cardiovascular hospital. Sorry, can't remember the intersection name.
Guy is good and honest and worked on my trucks for years.

Get your vehicle scanned at Auto-Zone. They can tell you what the fault code is. Thinking it's a Ford since you used the dealership, check out
Hoyt's Automotive on High Meadows Blvd. behind the State Police on Pont des Mouton. Hub City Ford is expensive.

Mike's car care center on Rena drive (by Don's seafood hut) has always been good and honest for me.
