French consumer fraud watchdog finds 40% of auto repair shops have violations

Forty percent of inspected auto repair shops in 2024 were found to have violations. Inspections by France's consumer fraud watchdog revealed issues like incomplete pricing, insufficient invoice details, and inflated costs at over 1,600 garages and dealerships. These findings led to corrective or repressive actions for 40% of the businesses, an increase from previous checks, as repair costs rise.
