Took my car into another shop which was quick to tell me I had a problem, but acted like they didn't want to fix it. So I luckily found Arrow who not only fixed it, but did a great job doing so. The quote they gave was accurate as well as the timeline to get the work done. Looks like I've found a new shop to take care of my car. Service: General repairs & maintenance

Report
Arrow Automotive repaired the steering mechanism on our GMC pickup. The work was scheduled and performed very efficiently. James was our service advisor and he followed up on the repair and showed us that he really was concerned to know that the repair was done to our satisfaction. When we experienced a small related problem, he arranged for it to be dealt with expeditiously and at no additional cost.
We are highly satisfied customers. We are not normally on social media, but we are making an exception with this review because James and his team are worthy of special recognition for the excellent service we received.

Took a used truck to them I just bought. This was my second time taking a vehicle to them. The service is OUTSTANDING. Very professional and they keep you in the loop on the communication throughout the whole process. Got a completely dead AC blowing ice cold again. Highly recommend them for any car repairs. They are not a cheap just get it working company. They get the repair done right.

Arrow Automotive was the third company that did a transmission repair on my Jeep and they got it right! The pan had been slightly tweaked from the initial repair (another state & business) and no one else could figure out why it leaked. Arrow Automotive conducted a thorough examination and replaced the pan. It's an enormous relief to not have transmission fluid dripping or worry if the transmission is going to blow out. I appreciate their attention to detail, clean shop and professionalism. I highly recommend Arrow Automotive.

My check engine light kept coming on and off for a week or so. I took it to Arrow Automotive Transmission because a friend had recommended them and now I see why he recommended them. James was very helpful from the start. He explained in detail what was the diagnosis on my car and what needed to be done to fix it. James answered all my questions and concerns on my SUV. It is now running great! I appreciate all your help and I highly recommend Arrow Automotive. Thank You!
