    Looking for a good Prius mechanic in South Alabama near Foley, AL or in Baldwin County. He's got a 2012 Prius 3 and needs someone we can count on.

    To do what All that's going to need is an engine replacement brake actuators and little odds and ends like that which the car may or may not be worth it doesn't really need a Prius specialist unless you're going to try and rebuild and overhaul and re-head gasket the existing engine that you have and even then this is the same engine basically as a Corolla If a shop can't work on a Corolla they probably need to revamp their mission so there's always that The only thing gets specialized about the Prius is the orange cabling and a battery in the trunk The big one not really a lot to learn to navigate in the shop setting really but hey I'm from Alabama but I'm around mountain Brook and I don't know any Prius specialist in mountain Brook but there are a lot of Prius and they get worked on and quite a few places around mountain Brook a good luck.
