“Had lots of work done here. Good people to work with. They know their stuff...”
- Robert L. Wheeler
“Craig diagnosed my car and found a lot of problems and fixed them but my car still didn’t run correctly. When i told him about the problem he did a second diagnosis for free and found the root of the problem that would have destroyed the repairs that were done previously. He then got the GM of this location to work out a deal for the repair and now the car runs perfectly. Both Craig and Clay even gave me advice on how to prevent further problems from occurring. I will MOST DEFINITELY return for further service to my car. You guys are awesome and have greatly improved my productivity. Thank you!!!”
