Dealt with John at this location today and he was fantastic, knowledgeable,... kind, explained everything and even had a loaner car for me. We have always dealt with the dealership that we purchased our vehicles from, but no more, they didn’t even come close to the service we experienced today. Will be going back.read more

All staff are nice and friendly, John chief among them! He is super hands on... and it's obvious that he loves what he does and truly cares. Every car in our household (4 in total) goes here and it's always hassel free. Never been an issue in over 10 years. Highly recommendedread more

I called last week as I noticed one of my headlights was burnt out and that I... needed an oil change. I spoke with the owner and he fit me in that day even though the shop was very busy and booking 2 out. I am always hesitant/nervous with taking my car in for service as I have had bad experiences with other shops. John was such a delight to deal with and honest. I highly recommend them! I will definitely using them for all my car maintenance and repairs. Thank you!!read more
