SAFETY ISSUE ! Needs Attention Now

These are the areas that we use for our inspections. These headings speak for themselves on what needs to be done for your vehicle. What we want to do is to make an honest inspection that shows the proper heading that fits the needs of the vehicle. Many places will mislabel the need for your vehicle into the improper category. This may instill fear in you, the customer. That may cause you to make a decision on your vehicle that may not necessarily need to be done at that time.


Some of you have already found an independent repair facility that is very reputable. Yes, they are out there! I am happy for you if that is the case. If not, we would like you to consider our shop or another independent for repairs on your vehicle. Keep in mind, the independent shops are not under “upper management” that have quotas like dealerships and “big box” repair facilities. For most repairs, independents are the better option.
