They checked what I had asked for. Fixed the problem and performed maintenance I needed and no more.

Thank you so much for the 5 star rating and for supporting our small family business!

Made oil change appointment. Upon arrival, was told they only do synthetic oil changes even though website says conventional oil changes are available (my vehicle does not require synthetic) Clearly 'bait and switch' tactic. Stay away.

Hi Mark- we do offer conventional motor oil but we don't stock it and don't recommend it for anyone regardless of what vehicle they drive. It's not a "bait and switch". We have a vested interest in making honest recommendations to our customers and no shop that has your best interests in mind will recommend convention motor oil for your car. We only stock full synthetic oil as it offers better protection for your engine and is more cost effective for you as you can extend your oil change intervals so the overall cost of maintaining your vehicle is lower. Most modern engines require full synthetic oil and even the ones that don't are still better protected and better off in the long run. Thank you for your business and have a great day!

Easy to work with. They were honest about the issue and didn’t try to up-sell or make any add-ons. My truck was done quickly too.

I’m from out of town. Had significant car troubles as I made it to Minneapolis. I’m from 5 hours south of the cities. They got me in the next day and had repairs done in a couple hours. Very thankful

I was left wondering if they employ sneaky strategies to collect more money. They coincidentally found bad tail lights on a vehicle I took in September and yet again on another vehicle months later. I refused the service and found my lights functioning just fine when I tested them. Then, I needed a fix for an urgent problem. They called to inform me about multiple things the car needed before actually diagnosing the issue that needed urgent repair and managed to persuade me to approve those. Later that day, they finally diagnosed the main problem. I walked away paying $3,200! My vehicle is barely valued that much. I own my mistake for agreeing to fix the less urgent issues before knowing the total price for everything, but that's precisely where they should have started: by giving me a COMPLETE picture in order for me to make an informed decision. Now they have lost three clients (including my wife and brother).

Hi Renzo- thank you for taking the time to leave us feedback. It sounds like we missed the boat on communication with you and we sincerely apologize for that. Our job is to tell you what is going on with your vehicle and advise you on what needs to be done now and what can wait. We provide this via your digital vehicle health report explaining all our recommendations with pictures and notes. We're simply making the same recommendation to you that we would make to our family members. Please note that side marker lights are not the same thing as tail lights- that's probably why you weren't able to confirm the issues. Thank you again for your feedback and have a great day!

They over charge on brake and rotors and they threw away my front heat shield rather than repair it so now I can’t repair it either.

Hi Ryan- Thank you for giving us a try and for taking time to leave us feedback. We’re very sorry you didn’t think our service was a good value. We firmly stand behind our prices and in most cases can meet or beat any apples to apples competitor quotes. I'm sure if you shop around you'll see that our prices for your brakes is VERY reasonable. Regarding your heat shield, it was crumpled and not repairable. However, if you would like it back we still have it at the shop in the scrap bin. We stand behind all our work and recommendations with a 3 year/36k mile warranty, complimentary roadside assistance, and offer free loaner cars. Thank you again for your feedback and have a great day!
