Mike’s Auto Repair

I went to Mike’s because I had a service engine lite come on and because I needed an oil change. He told me that there was a error code on the computer, but he reset it and he suggested I just keep an eye on it. He said if it comes on again, to bring it back and he’d change my spark plugs.
It should be mentioned, my husband put gas in my tank and didn’t screw the cap on tight enough (the care was VERY empty before he put gas in it) and that is when the light came on. Also, I priced out several other service centers in and around Pataskala and Mike’s was by far the best value for this service which is why I decided to go to him.
He easily could have replaced the plugs and I would have happily paid him the money considering he was SO reasonable compared to other places, but he didn’t. He took the conservative route and I appreciated that. SO far my car runs like a charm!
ALSO, while I was there a police officer came in and asked Mike to check out his personal vehicle as well as 2 other customers who seemed, by their interactions, to have a long standing relationship with him. Those 3 people gave me additional reassurance that I was in the right place.
In talking to Mike, I also learned he is a retired Columbus fire fighter (we discovered that we had mutual friends).
All in all, this guy is TOP NOTCH! His place is no frills. No waiting area. No secretary. No free coffee or water like some of the chains. BUT I would (and I will) pick this guy over all the rest!
