I need to get my car into a mechanic as soon as possible.
Anyone in particular you're looking to take it to?
Yes, call Intelligent Auto Services and see when they can get my car in, please.
Okay. Just so I know, what kind of car do you have?
I own a 2009 Nissan Versa SL.
Alright. What should I tell them the problem is?
I have an oil leak, and I'm having to put oil into the car every 3 days, so I'm worried it may be a major problem.
Okay. When do you want the appointment, first thing in the morning?
As soon as possible!!!
I've got them on the phone now. They want to know if you can have it there in the morning.
I was really hoping for this afternoon. I'm afraid I may have a bad gasket.
They said they can probably get to it this afternoon, but they're not sure if they can have it done today if it's a gasket.
Ask for Fred. I've dealt with him in the past. Tell him you're talking to Mitch Donahue. He'll remember me.
I'm waiting for them to get Fred. What phone number do you want me to give them.
Give them my personal cell. (432) 555-6288
Okay, I'm speaking to Fred right now. He asked if you broke it on purpose? Ha Ha.
Yeah, tell him I wanted to give him some more of my money.
He said he can fit you in this afternoon. He wants to know when you can get it here.
I'm heading over to the bank right now. I should be there for about an hour, I can drive it over there after that.
He said that will work well.
Does he think he'll be able to get it finished today?
He said he should be able to, unless it's a main gasket.
Great. Ask him if he has someone who can give me a ride back to the office, or if I need to arrange an Uber.
He said he can arrange a ride for you.
Ask him what kind of charge I'll have for him to look at it.
He says since you're a regular, he'll do that for free. If it's a major problem, he says you'll pay for it in the end.
I know that. Okay, so just so we're clear, let me know the details you gave him.
He'll be expecting you about 12:30pm. This is for your 2009 Nissan Versa. He's checking for the oil leak...specifically at gaskets. He should be able to have it done for you today, unless it's a major problem. Initial inspection is free. He'll have someone there to give you a ride back to the office.
That sounds great. Thanks so much!
You're welcome! See you after a while.
