1.What is the purpose of the information?

Questions 5-7 refer to the following information

To lessen the threat of faulty car repair work or repair frauds, there are a number of constructive steps you can take. While these measures can’t offer full protection, they are wise insurance against dented pocketbooks and expanded time schedules.

First, never wait until a small problem becomes a big and costly one. Always take your car in for a checkup at the first sign of trouble. But before you take the car in, make a list of all the problems and symptoms so you are prepared to describe the trouble as accurately and specifically as possible. Don’t just ask to have the car put in “working order.” That kind of statement can lead directly to unnecessary work
On your initial visit, make certain you get a copy of the work authorization that you signed or a general estimate of the total cost of the repairs. Ask the repair garage to telephone you when the exact work to be done has been determined. When you receive the call, say you now want to return to the garage to obtain another work order itemizing the cost of each repair to be made.
