Testimonials

On 6/27/2025 Meagan had this to say:
As a girl in the van world, I often find it difficult to find mechanics who care to listen to me & treat me with respect (and have equipment suited for giant cars lol). I have brought 2 vans of mine to these guys over the years now and they have always shown incredible quality of work, integrity, and pricing. When I brought my first van, it barely moved and it needed a total rebuild. These guys took care of it for me & when I got it back it ran flawlessly. I took it all over the country 2 times over and put thousands of miles on it over the course of a few years and not once did the transmission ever give me a problem again. The second van I brought to them recently with concerns of it needing work as well. I explained to them what the problem was and they heard me out entirely. They were more than willing to listen and poke around at it, and better yet, these guys won’t tell you to spend money or get expensive work done if you don’t need to. Turned out to be nothing, but I’m extremely grateful for the peace of mind I get with this shop. These mechanics are very good at what they do and they really seem to care about my experience with them.

This place was wonderful! I was in a complete panic after a bad experience at a dealership. Steve was so incredibly kind and helpful, and made me feel so much better about the whole situation. I was incredibly grateful for his help!

On 5/21/2025 Brian Barwig had this to say:
Excellent service, communication, and follow up. I ended up taking my car here for what I thought was a transmission issue. They drove the car, looked it over, and let me know it was not a trans issue. No charge for the assessment. Good dudes, good service. What more do you want?

On 3/13/2025 Joseph Narusis, PhD had this to say:
Amazing service and great estimate, would highly recommend after doing lots of research myself

On 3/3/2025 Ted Pietrolaj had this to say:
Excellent experience! I only dealt with Steve. He gave me a confidence as a customer like a father would make you feel with something they did themselves hundreds of times. They were transparent, open and honest, clear in communication and had a good gameplan for my 25 year old car. Sometimes it can be a risk to find a specialty shop for something but I hit a home run with these guys! Great job to all!!
