Leibold Auto Center of Galena

Whenever I move from one place to another, the biggest adjustment is dealing with RVA or relocation vendor anxiety. Or more specifically, dealing with the loss and replacement of a favorite grocery store, haircut place, or auto service center. I had a great reliable mechanic in Chicago, and after four visits here, I think I’ve found another good one. Liebold is located conveniently near downtown Galena.
In those four visits, I’ve only spent about $ 50, which is a major coup with any mechanic. Two of of those were actual service, and two were my hearing noises, bringing the car in for diagnostics where they found nothing. Kudos to them for putting up with my «mechanichondriac» tendencies and of course with mouthing the noises for them when I bring the car in. Living in a small town, you know, word of one’s eccentricities tends to get around fast, and I could get a «reputation.»
On all four visits, I was able to hang out and wait at their shop and peruse the nice variety of outdated magazines, watch and laugh at animal videos on my smart phone, so it was the auto service equivalent of fast food. The fact that on two occasions they didn’t charge me a cent (to find nothing was wrong) is a good way to guarantee I will be back to annoy them in the future. Thanks, guys. You’re better than Paxil.
