Default Ottawa area Mechanic

Hey everyone, I’m new to the jeep forum and was hoping to get some help. I live in the Ottawa area and need to get a couple things done to my jeep but the dealership seems to think that because I’m a girl with a jeep that I’m stupid so I’m hoping someone has a recommendation of a good mechanic in the area. Thanks so much!

I'm out in Kanata, and like you said, stay away from the dealership out here. What do you need done, warranty work or aftermarket stuff?

If you need a lift done or tire price, id call National 4wd in Montreal. Awesome service and best price all around. They were the cheapest for my lift. National 4wd in Smith Falls was way overprice and same with the truck shop on Bank street. After paying for gas and my time, i was still cheaper in Montreal.

The manager of the shop at Orleans Chrysler is a Jeeper and he's really helpful when it come to warranty works. He doesn't care about the mods you have as long as you're not negligent and braking stuff on your jeep on purpose.
