English term or phrase: car care shop
Es geht um eine Umfrage zu Autoreifen: Bei der Frage, in welchem Umfang der Interviewte an der Entscheidung über den Austausch der Reifen seines Wagens beteiligt ist:
"I listen to / ask for recommendations from car care shop staff (such as brand, price, best period to replace, etc.) and them make the decision by myself"

Wie kann man "car care shops" denn am besten ins Deutsche übersetzen? Bin für jede Anregung dankbar...

Autowerkstatt
Explanation:
"care care shop staff" könnte auch mit Automechaniker übersetzt werden
Viele Deutsche lassen sich doch Tipps geben von der Autowerkstatt ihres Vertrauens, also wäre auch "Empfehlung von meinem Automechaniker/meiner Werksatt" eine Möglichkeit.
