Testimonials

On 3/3/2025 G. Chevere had this to say:
Great mechanics. Jeff, who is the one that takes in the cars, takes his time talking to customers to discuss issues and problems. In my case, it is my beautiful old 2001 Lexus LS 430 which I have always treated like a little baby. He understood that and kept the car indoors for the couple of days that it took for them to get the parts and make the mechanical repairs. Testimonial written by G. Chevere on this site.
