For months, cars were driven sporadically or not at all. So as the economy reopened, when many people grabbed keys and headed out the door to work, shop or visit with friends, an odd thing happened.
Nothing.
Many vehicles didn’t start. Others badly needed service. And while that is good for a mechanic’s business, it has been bad for getting the parts needed to do the work all at once, said Kevin Keller, a Norcross, Ga.-based mobile technician for YourMechanic.com.
Prices are higher and everything has to be ordered early or the job gets postponed — which has happened, Keller said.
