On 12/9/2025 Dawn S. had this to say:
I am a huge fan of this place for a few reasons ... Last year, my car died and I had it towed there, upon recommendation from a dear friend. They did their best to try and revive the auxiliary battery, because it was a hybrid. They literally had it for a couple of days to do their best to get it to re-start, but it did not ... and they didn't even charge me ONE penny! Fast-forward to this year, I got a new car and stopped in one day when I was in the area to ask how much they charged for a winter prep inspection and he gave me a price so I made an appointment. This morning was my appointment and not only did he keep the good price he quoted me, but their oil change price is $13 cheaper than my old place I used to go with my old car, so I had him do that, too! I like when folks quote prices and stick to them - nothing "snuck" in. I like to support local (especially in my own town), family-owned businesses as well, and that is what this one is, too. Nothing against where I used to go, but I decided this is the place for me and my new car, and I highly recommend them to you as well. Tyler is the gentleman I was dealing with. Tell him "Dawn sent me!" :)

Thanks for getting me in so fast. This time it was an easy repair. We've taken our cars here several times. Always friendly, honest and reasonable.

On 9/30/2025 Kimberly K. had this to say:
I have been going here for many years. I will never trust another mechanic. Tyler is an amazing person who is honest, trusting, and fair just as his father was before him. They always beat everyone else's prices and never sell me what I don't need. If you ever go for an oil change and get that list of repairs you need, bring it to Tyler. He will sort through what is and isn't necessary and give a much better price. Thank you for everything!

On 9/9/2025 Pastor Kotch had this to say:
I had my intake manifold/plenum gasket set and intake/fuel injector O-ring kit replaced here, and they fixed everything I needed perfectly. The staff is easily the most welcoming and informative I’ve dealt with—patient, professional, and willing to work with my schedule to get the job done. I truly appreciate the help and care they put into the process. Thank you Tyler!
