I’ve brought my older car here multiple times whenever I’m in the area. It’s super easy to try and arrange to have some work done. I’ve even showed up on a Saturday afternoon, which is likely their busiest hours, and they were able to graciously fit me in.
While I’ve mostly had oil changes and tire rotations done here, I did have a problem with my AC earlier this summer because it was running warm. If you know summers in Atlanta, you know that not having a functioning AC can literally be hell. I had an AC recharge before, and was expecting to maybe have another one done. After checking it out, it so happens that my old Acura had an AC compressor that was well on its way to dying. So much so that it was spewing the fluid all over. What’s great is that they were very straightforward in explaining the situation, but were also honest in their opinion as to what to do. Being a broke grad student, it gets tight to funnel all my loans into repairing my car. They advised that instead of dishing out a ton of money on repairing the part, that maybe another recharge would be able to last me through the summer. My car is a 2002 Acura RSX with over 200k miles; she’s served me well but is also getting old. Putting in a lot of work at this point would probably be foolish in the long run (knock on wood). So per their advice, my ultimate decision was to just get the oil change + an AC recharge.
It’s been nearly 5 months later and my AC is amazingly running just fine and giving me cold, conditioned air when I need it. Will I need another recharge in the near future? Likely. But given my circumstances and situation, this was definitely a money-​saving solution and am so glad I made the decision that I did.
I will definitely be giving them more of my business, and highly recommend giving them a try.

I’ve used this location for oil changes. It took a really long time, but they also provided me with four pages of recommended repairs for my super old truck. Some of the things seemed a bit high — $ 70 to replace spark plugs — but others seemed like they were priced comparably to other shops.
My only complaint was the speed of service. It took nearly two hours for my oil to be changed, and it wasn’t exactly busy. With that said, everyone was extremely nice and friendly. Perhaps I just caught them at a slow time.

I have known the owner for some time. He’s got great integrity in doing business. He and his employees care about the benefit of others. People is the heart of there business. You can’t go wrong with that. I highly recommend this location.

I was visiting a friend outside of Atlanta when I caught a flat. Got my car towed to this place and the service was outstanding. The prices were reasonable and I was back on the road in no time.
