Until the early 1970s, consumers had no way to distinguish between incompetent and competent mechanics. In response to this need, the independent, non-profit National Institute for Automotive Service Excellence (ASE) was established in 1972. ASE's mission is to improve the quality of vehicle repair and service through the testing and certification of repair and service professionals.

So appreciate Chris dropping everything to help a frantic crazed woman who pulled into his garage without an appt insisting something was seriously wrong with my new vehicle...without hesitation and regard to his busy schedule he immediately checked out my situation and completely had me reassured. What a good guy and great mechanic...they will always have my business...next time with an appointment lol. Thank you Vangelders!

After giving the ok to replace it, I got a call saying there was a bad universal joint and wanted to know if they should fix it. There were a couple of other minor issues I had theme fix. They did excellent work and kept me informed of everything. No work was done without my permission. ( I've had issues with this in the past.) The bill was more than I anticipated but the quality of the parts justified the price. Truck was done on time as promised. ( I've had issues with this too.) The

As always great service and reliable repairs. Mike, Chris and JR have kept our Subarus rolling along mile after mile. They have had our Subaru service since 2006 and we highly recommend them to anyone looking for good local service on their vehicles.
