Can someone recommend a dealer or service center that they have had good experience with in the Fairfax County area? Thanks in advance! '99 Contour SVT

I might be taking my car to Hill & Sanders Ford for my clutch work. The quoted me the best hourly rate. I have no idea what kinda work they do though.

I'm not saying there should be a capital punishment for stupidity, but why don't we just take the safety labels off of everything and let the problem solve itself?

They ran the throttle cable OVER the coolant tank, instead of under, they didn't re-install a ground wire to the coil pack, and I think they might have messed up my right-side headlight, because the bulbs don't fit tightly into it. It might have been like that before, I don't know. I'm not really concerned about it, especially as the headlights are starting to yellow and I was going to replace 'em anyway. They also dropped the radiator on the floor so I got a new radiator from them.
