. Here are suggestions for what to do in the meantime.
-Do not ignore routine maintenance such as oil changes, brakes, and tires because you may need your vehicle in an emergency. There are still basic mechanical repair shops open.
-Clean inner and outer door handles, steering wheel, high use push buttons, and shifter before and after repairs. Any quality shop should disinfect the vehicle once finished with it.
-Most collision shops are closed; however, they can still coordinate services for you in an emergency such as towing and recovery. If your car is towed, your local shop will be able to retrieve it and then coordinate all services as normal
-Wait time for collision repairs is the same throughout the area. Your local shop will do the best they can in this uncertain time. Ask questions up front and know your rights
