When I found them hands down way above the others on every level. Their costs are below every other place. I needed a transfer case replaced and when I called other places they quoted a grand more and talked down to me like they were too busy and didn't care. One place wanted to charge me $150 just to put it up on the rack and look at it!! Just look at it without even draining the fluid. These were a few places that have been here for decades. I was so insulted. Jim and Jeremy (father and son) are two of the nicest people I've ever met in general in my life. I could just hang out with them all day. Right away they treated me like family and took me in. I felt so cared for and trusted them immediately. I needed two control arms also fixed a couple months after that. My car was jumping around a bit and then I went down the hill and it was so bad around the curves I was so scared I pulled over on the side of the road and called Jim crying. He talked to me like I was his daughter telling me what to do. Got back had them fixed immediately again costs low. There have been other things that were weird they looked at it and it was a simple fix that took 20 minutes without any charge! I was literally begging them to take my money! I could write a novel on this review about how good they are. I have no personal connection with them. I am writing it only as a customer just so incredibly grateful. Thank you Jim and Jeremy for taking such good care of me and my car! I'm a lifer now!

My husband and I have some horror stories about some mechanics we've dealt with in the past so our…read moretrust in mechanics was at zero. Knights auto was recommended by a good friend and we'll never take our vehicles anywhere else. We brought my husbands work truck in for a power of steering replacement. Within a few weeks of driving the truck it was making sounds like the pump was going back out. We brought the truck back to knights, they looked at it again and admitted the part was faulty. They replaced our pump with no cost. This showed outstanding integrity since In the past, we've dealt with mechanics who shrug off their mistakes and make it seem like it's your fault to get more money out of you. Not the case here. Love this shop. Won't find a more honest mechanic than Dave Knight in the mountain communities.

Hands down THE BEST!! You don't need to go anywhere else, (but you might need a little patience)…read more They are a very busy shop, so calling ahead about when to come in is a necessity, but I've had to purchase two different vehicles for my daughter, and brought them here to make them road worthy. Both were old Subaru Outbacks and she never had any problems after that, (it's only been a couple years though). I've taken my car there too and never feel pressured into anything unnecessary. They're just great people. So, so glad to have them in town. Love them and highly recommend them. My husband is now taking his car there too.

Looked up local places and am so happy I found Sarellano Garage! Fortunately, they had the battery for my vehicle in stock.

The gentleman who helped me was Rodney and I couldn't be happier with how thorough and conscientious he was. I will definitely support this business with at least fuel purchases next time I am in town.
