Report
I ordered a transmission replacement and after the transmission was shipped and arrived, I had to cancel the order. Obviously this was not a pleasant thing for these folks to have to deal with. But they handled this with grace and understanding and refunded my full deposit. I am very impressed with the value they place on customer service and I certainly recommend them to anyone who values that!

Very comprehensive and responsive shop. I have taken two vehicles there. Both times they were very professional and reliable.

Report
I haven't had service on my 1999 Jeep Grand Cherokee since COVID started. I scheduled a "seasonal" check-up and was pleased with the thorough inspection. I received a list of what needed replacing or attended to and pricing for the work. Communication was excellent from making the appointment to picking up the car once the work was finished. I've used Superior Auto since 2008 and will continue.

Report
Once again Superior did an excellent job with the maintenance of my vehicle. My car is old (1999 Toyota Rav 4) and Superior has helped me develop a maintenance plan to keep the vehicle running for another, hopefully 50.000 miles. They communicated frequently with the status of repairs and kept me up to date with the schedule and outlook of completion. When the vehicle was finished, it felt like I was now driving a new car and ran so so much better. Im grateful to Superior, especially the mechanic, Chris T and Service Advisor, Kyle O. for their superior work and for great communication with the repairs. Its nice to know I have such a great and consistent team for my car maintenance
