I had an excellent first experience at this location. The owner's wife was extremely accommodating and she was able to schedule my car for the day that I had requested. She worked with my crazy schedule too and I was able to get my car back at the time I had requested.
The owner called me with an update and even went over things once I arrived to get my car.
I would highly recommend!
