If yours is not here, call the shop, we would rather answer it on the phone than have you guess.
We quote after the car is on a lift, not over the phone, and the quote is firm before anything is touched. The reason is that the same job on two vehicles is genuinely two different jobs: a brake service on a compact with pads only and one on a truck needing pads, rotors and a seized caliper are not the same work. What we will commit to is the process. The inspection costs nothing, you get an itemised figure before we start, and the invoice matches it or you hear about it by phone first.
Most oil changes are about 30 minutes. Most brake and exhaust jobs are finished the same day, because the welding is done here rather than sent out. If your vehicle needs a part we do not stock, we tell you that before you leave the car rather than after.
No. Walk-ins are welcome any time during shop hours, six days a week. Calling ahead just lets us tell you how busy the bays are before you drive over.
Ask for the number. Pad thickness in millimeters, tread depth in thirty-seconds, a rotor measured against the minimum stamped on it. A shop that measures will tell you instantly; a shop that says “they are getting low” is giving you an adjective. We write the numbers down, we show you the worn part, and the old parts are yours on request.
The multi-point inspection is free on every car that goes on the lift, and it stays free whether or not you have the work done. A full diagnostic scan, the kind that takes real time to trace a fault to its cause, is applied toward the repair if you go ahead with it.
Yes. The 101-day payment plan needs no credit and is approved at the counter while you wait, so an unsafe car does not have to wait for payday. Ask when you get the quote.
Domestic and foreign, most makes and models. If yours is something we genuinely cannot do properly, we will say so rather than learn on your car.
No. Michigan requires a working muffler and prohibits modifications that make a vehicle louder than stock, and removing the catalytic converter is a federal matter on top of that. We will fix an exhaust, fabricate a section and build a system that sounds the way you want within the law, and we will tell you honestly where that line is.
Always. Ask when you approve the work and we will set them aside for you.
Call us before you drive a car that has failed on the road and we will tell you whether it is safe to bring in or better to have it towed.
Describe what the car is doing and we will tell you what it usually turns out to be.
