Sisters car overheated and I was nervous but stopped here! Man was God watching over me because this place was so great! Car was fixed in a day and they charged a very very good price for the work. They were honest and communicative. This place was a life saver and the best choice I've made in a while. Highly recommend coming here if you need work on your car!

I was recommended here over 20 years ago after another shop messed up my car. Chris not only fixed the problem, but called the other shop to tell them their work was done incorrectly and that they needed to refund me. I have never gone anywhere else after that. The level of service is off the charts. In every situation Chris has helped us out and always provided us with all our options. Prices are fair, but to me the biggest factor has been how trustworthy and honest they are. I have met other people who have recommended me to them, not knowing I was already a loyal customer.

Nobody in the business is going to gain your trust and confidence any better than Chris and his staff. He convinced me about 20 yrs. ago that he was now my go to guy. Genuine and honest mechanics are very rare these days and having the luxury of his knowledge, commitment, support, and an honest concern for your well being and safety is quite a blessing.
So if you like cookie cutter, plastic coated mechanics that talk the shiny polished jibberish they're so adept in then don't go to Service Auto Care because all your going to get is a dialogue similar to that of Sgt. Joe Friday from the show Dragnet (just the facts, please) but with a friendly, not monotone, personality. I guarantee you will not be disappointed.

I had the good fortune of finding out about Service Auto Care from a complete stranger that I had a random conversation with at the grocery store. I took my car to them thinking that I had a starter problem which he ended up "diagnosing" as a battery problem. They could have replaced the starter and recommended a new battery as well, which I probably would have gone along with since that's not my area of expertise. LOL! Instead, Chris, was very up front, kind and patient as he educated me.and saved me money as well. Will I be going back to him if problems arise with my car? You betcha! Thank you Chris!

Been working with them for 4 or 5 years. A reliable place that leans on the side of minimalism if you ask for it. That is, avoiding expensive replacements, sticking with preventive care, and no scamy offers for stuff you're car doesn't need. I highly recommend doing oil changes, you can even bring your own oil & filter, at a place like this instead of drive thru places. It costs a little more but, again, no scamy offers and they won't mess with anything you haven't asked to inspect

The absolute best. Fair, knowledgeable and just all-around fantastic. I have been going here for years and every time Chris and his mechanics diagnose and fix everything to perfection every time. Fair rates for the great work they do. I would not take my cars for repair anywhere else. Worth every penny every time.

I have been a customer here since I moved here 11 years ago. Chris is completely honest and fair with his prices. I initially brought my car to the shop next door for brakes and they tried to rip me off and tell me I needed new rotors. After telling them what they could do with their new rotors, I took my car next door to Chris and asked him to check the brakes. Chris told me the rotors just needed to be turned instead of replaced.
He also told me that my car looked completely brand new mechanically and didn't try to sell me any unnecessary service like most places try to do. I knew I had found the right place.

I've been taking my cars to Chris and his team for several years now. It's rare to work with honest people who aren't trying to upsell you anything or charge for unnecessary work. The guys here do a great job for a very reasonable price, and they've given me accurate and helpful advice on how to keep our cars running well for the long run. Can't recommend this place enough.

Fair, honest, upfront. explained automotive issues so even a novice could understand. Did not try to push additional work onto me, even though car has some other issues. Enjoyed dealing with Chris. Seems to be very down to earth, and wants his customers to feel happy with there decision to go with his shop.

A good friend of mine recommended this place, since his whole family has everything done on their cars here. About a year ago I took my then car here because the mechanic I took it to (3x's btw) kept having to re-affix a hose supplying engine coolant, which was ridiculous. I took it to Chris and he permanently fixed the issue, I was so happy.
The price wasn't too bad either. Since I had such a great experience, I took my car there a 2nd time, as it was not passing smog. Chris said they needed to order a part and he would work on finding out what the issue was (for a day or so). Come to find out the last time it was smogged, the prior mechanic did something illegal to get it to pass.
So after all of this he said in order to fix it would be a waste of money and suggested I get rid of it (which I did!). Chris did not charge me a penny, not even for labor or the ordered part! I really love how honest they all are and they do such great work! They are always careful and do not make a mess when working on your car too. This place is amazing and I will be taking my new car here soon.
