On Thursday, January 20th, The Cook County Sheriff’s mechanics facilitated a car lights repair event for Cook County residents for southwest suburban residents.  The event went from 9:00am to 12:00pm and was located at the Public Works Building.  The volunteer mechanics say the free light repair events provide an opportunity to support our community through this collaboration, now in its fourth year.

“Our resident’s safety must be first and foremost in everything we do,” said Cook County Commissioner Frank J. Aguilar.  “Cost should never be a barrier to safety, and I am proud that residents throughout the 16th District were able to get their vehicles fixed, free of charge.  I would like to thank Cook County Sheriff Thomas Dart and Berwyn Mayor Robert Lovero for a great event that will bring immediate help to our residents.”  The aim of the program is to help residents avoid tickets, fees and traffic stops while improving road safety, according to the Sheriff’s Office.

“We hope this partnership will help many people out by saving them time and money. I also want to give thanks to the skilled mechanics from the Cook County Sheriff’s Office for offering their valuable services in a quick and cost-free way, especially after the holiday season,” stated Mayor Robert J. Lovero.
