Lockdown 😭

Car went into dealer Monday for driveshaft recall and trans service. Dealer closed that night with car on the ramp. Now that's self isolation.
Far worse things going on in the world though.
Stay safe 😷

Man that sucks! I was at the dealership yesterday and techs were still all working full force. Hope they can get to your car soon...

Up here they are essential. Mine went in for seasonal tire change Tuesday. However anything requiring a mechanic to drive your car was put off ie rattles and such. Only direct mechanical work is being performed. I feel your pain. My car is an integral part of me. Stay safe.

Same thing here in NY State/New York City; Auto repair shops are deemed Essential Services. My dealer has 50% of the techs working, one SA per day.

All car dealerships in the UK have been told to close. Independent garages etc still allowed to open.
No allowed to drive anywhere anyway except the shops.
