Non-dealer body and mechanic shops still exist.
Of course. My point is there will be fewer in small towns is all.
No matter how you slice it no dealerships means fewer support jobs. Not just fewer salesman

Not necessarily. The amount of cars needing repaired shouldn't change which means the need for technicians shouldn't change.
If dealerships close(leading to a loss of employment for mechanics), then demand for techs and mechanics at local mechanic shops will rise. This should also lead to an increase in demand of shops as the existing one's will start seeing backups.

This is not how economics works. The supply of maintenance shops at dealers decreases it creates opportunities for independent shops. The demand for service is unchanged so the supply will just shift in providers.
