Christine Mitchell calls herself ?The Car Lady,? but if she wasn?t a licensed technician with 28 years experience, she could easily perform stand-up comedy.
On September 17, Mitchell addressed a full house at Highland GM in Aurora, delivering snippets of automotive wisdom interspersed with jokes and one-liners that kept the audience laughing ? and focused on her message of common-sense car care.
She was right at home in the dealership, having spent 12 years as a GM technician, but her words were universal. Be it the often-repeated message of changing your oil, or the more obscure warning about overfilling your gas tank (it can damage your charcoal canister and cost $600 or more), Mitchell gave all those in attendance some advice to consider.
Also speaking at the event was Erynn Real, dealer relationship manager for GM Financial. Working in the auto industry since 1998, she covered all the bases in purchasing a vehicle, including the common debate of whether to finance or lease.
Jennifer Copely, general sales manager at Highland, noted the event was a tremendous success, giving everybody not just an entertaining evening of refreshments and hors d?oevres, but some information they can take home and use right away.
?Next to your home, a vehicle is typically your second-largest purchase,? she adds. ?It makes sense to gain a better understanding of how it works, and to commit to do those things we discussed tonight. I hope this event will help our guests extend the life of their investment.?
Donations made at Highland Auto Professional?s ?In the driver?s seat? event went to POGO (Pediatric Oncology Group of Ontario) to help support kids with cancer across York Region. Catering was supplied by Edward Street Bistro in Aurora
