I've always had a great experience here. I've never had any major car problems, but when I do, without a doubt this is where I'll take my car. While I've waited for my oil to get changed, I've watched the employees interactions with customers & the level they give is right on! I come on the weekends and the guy at the front desk Sal is always upbeat, informative & will help & answer every & any question you have with a smile. This place has 4 stars for a reason!
