Cars!
Okay, you've got a Mid with a car. Perhaps you live hundreds
of miles away from Annapolis. They have limited time to get
the mechanical issues dealt with and they call you up with
the latest vehicle problem. What do you suggest? Well, here
are a few parental experiences to help guide you along....
My Mid had the radiator die in her car right as she was
about to head home for intercessionals in May. She had the
car towed from the Navy Lodge to Crownsville Automotive
in Crownsville, MD (which I do not think is far) and they
put a new radiator in that morning so she could be on her
way home in the afternoon. She was very happy with them
and the fact that they did the work so quickly for her.
Crownsville Automotives number is 410-923-6995 or
410-923-7430. Good luck!
I highly recommend Cape Auto Repairs or something like that
They are near the Cape St. Claire offramp on 50. I think that
is the name or something like that. They are located on E.
College Parkway, where it is a frontage road to 50. They are
very reasonable and good.
I have used Autosport before when I had vehicle problems in
Annapolis. He was price fairly and helped out because I was
a visitor to the Academy. I dealt with the owner but do not
have his name on my records.Autosport is located at 29 Lee
Street, Annapolis. Phone (410) 571-6660.
NAPA Auto Care Centers are generally great places to get your
car fixed. There's one at
Phipps
Automotive which is
about 10 miles away. The email address is phipps_automotive_md@napaautocare.com
and the phone number is (410) 867-7315. You could also call
the Annapolis Napa Store on 1750 Mcguckian St, Tel: (410)
263-2695 and ask them to recommend an area repair facility
that may specialize in your Mid's particular vehicle and problem.
You should get a pretty good reference.
