Highly recommended! Customer service was superb and the owners immediately made me feel like I could trust them with my car. Going in I originally thought my brakes needed to be replaced but the owner and technician showed me that my brakes were fine and helped me to understand why they were squeaking instead of trying to take my money and send me off with new brakes when my current ones didn’t need to be replaced. Definitely will be returning for any upkeep I would need for my car. - Dominic A. (5 star review on Google)
