"Hard to find a place with people you can trust but we commute to this location because they have done such a great job for us. Highly recommend."
"The. Folks here are very courteous and try to accommodate you at your convenience. They are knowledgeable of much more than oil changes. Nice little waiting area which even has coffee. I will be coming back regularly with both my vehicles. I’ve had my tail light replaced, oil changed and now a rear wheel bearing. Each time everyone was professional and courteous. I always wait in the waiting room and observe how customers are dealt with. I will keep returning, service is very good, problems are repaired in a timely manner, and cost is competitive."
"Recently visited liquid lube and wash to have my power steering checked for a leak. They quickly discovered that something left behind in the engine compartment by a company mechanic had damaged the power steering system. They showed me the damage, took pictures which to use when seeing the dealer about it. I appreciated the honest assessment. My wife has used them as well and was complimentary of their honesty and service. They did not suggest service she didn't need."
