Yesterday, a segment on CNBC covered just this issue (forced car retention /repair and the implications). They said the 'sweet spot' for pl;aces like auto-zone, NAPA, and car -repair chains would start in abiout a year and last for , probably two to three years. The implication is that 'new- car' maunfacturers and dealers would be in deep water for the next five years (seven years from the beginning of the recession).
