Another shop quoted me for a new transmission. These guys found a faulty sensor, fixed it the same afternoon and charged me a fraction of that. I won't go anywhere else now.
I loved getting photos of my worn brake pads on my phone before they started. Clear pricing, friendly staff and the shuttle got me to work on time.
My AC died in the middle of July. They squeezed me in the same day, found the leak and had it blowing cold by evening. Great service from start to finish.
Honest people. They told me my brakes still had another few thousand miles in them instead of selling me a job I didn't need. That earned my business for life.
The digital inspection report was a game changer. I could see every issue, the price for each one, and approve only what I wanted right from my phone.
