Testimonials

On 2/18/2026 Pat Uhlman had this to say:
We have been using Dave for over two decades. He is the most knowledgeable and honest mechanic I have ever known. He guarantees his work but we have never had to return any of the many cars and trucks that we took to him. We are a five car family. Update 2026, the new owner is very personable, knowledgeable and honest. It's like a younger version of Dave himself. I have been frequenting this establishment since 1992. I have never been dissatisfied. Unfortunately, I've had to use the services of the new owner several times in the last 2 years. My car is 20 years old. I have never been disappointed with him either. BTW, if the owner ever reads this he will know me by the name of Patrice. I have a silver 2006 Honda Accord. Good work and honesty deserve praise.

I have been coming here for years when I lived in Indiana, and now I come all the way from Illinois to have my car serviced. Exceptional people, work, and reasonable too. They let you know what is needed. Keep up the good work!!!
