These guys rock! Saved me a lot of money and did a great job. I was told my car needed a head gasket and possibly a new engine. Based on a recommendation from a friend, I brought my car nearly 50 miles to this shop and it was well worth it! The car needed a water pump and thermostat, not a head gasket — which is what I was told by another mechanic. Vi and her team work at a blistering pace, so it can be hard to keep up with them, but their work is top notch and fair.

Great business! I’ve been taking my cars here for ten years now! They are trustworthy and caring people. I highly recommend their services.

I brought a potential ford in for basic inspection. I wanted to purchase the car cash quick but wasn’t sure how much more to negotiate. Brought it in and a full inspection for $ 30.00 saved me over $ 1000 in future repairs. The shop is amazing. I didn’t get the womans name, but she specifically said «I would treat you like my daughter and I’m telling you-DON’T GET THIS CAR!». Rare for a shop who could potentially see it as a goldmine opportunity to bait me for one single easy repair or misadvise me on a trash vehicle only to win my business afterwards. I didn’t buy the car to say the least and she saved me a headache of a future purchase.

Jiffy lube and Goodyear Tire tried to pull a fastone on me. Of course they are super conservative on what they think is a needed for my car. Estimated cost for a transmission flush was 180.00. Being a woman, I wanted a 3^rd opinion. Came here and the mechanic said my transmission fluid looks fine, nothing to worry about, but if I want I can get it changed at my next oil change, but it’s not required.
My thing is, why mess with it if you don’t have to ?
I think Vi is the owner, and she’s very nice, pretty busy shop. They’re no the best at customer service, but they get the job done. Oil change is 28.00, comparable to Jiffy Lube.
I’d come back if I need an opinion or work done on my car. I really appreciate the honesty!
