Nice work from rental car group here getting a nice car to airport for pax I flew in for meeting with our Matrix N465BP

Was warned by locals not to go there before hand. Ended up going twice and regretting it both times. Sad that this little town doesn't have much options on Auto Repair. First time I needed a new battery. Got a new Ford Motor Craft Battery from Cover-Jones. Then I went on my 600 mile trip for vacation. Filled up at my first stop and the car wouldn't start. I was in the middle of nowhere at 3 in the morning. Ended up having to buy another battery from another shop, this an Interstate Battery. When I came back I wanted my money back from the battery. Guy said he had to put the battery on a machine to get a code to be able to do that. He came back and said the battery came back good. I looked at the receipt and it showed it charged for about 18 minutes, sure it will pass if you charge it up. It was put back in the car and car died the next day. I put back in the Interstate battery and it has been running ever since. Sorry to tell you the battery is bad. Second time I was changing out my AC compressor in my other vehicle. Being a Good Samaritan and not releasing all that harmful freon into the environment I took it too Cover-Jones to evacuate all the freon. Dropped the vehicle off, walked down to Zesto for a shake as it was hot out that day. As soon as I placed my order I got a call saying my car was finished. I thought to myself that was fast, only took 10 minutes. Walked back, was charged $60 for a 10 minute job, OK I'll round it up to 15 minutes to be nice. Disconnected the first line that the low side AC port is on and LUCKILY I was wearing eye protection. It wasn't a little spritz but the line jerked my hand back with a lot of pressure. I can understand there be a little bit of residual pressure but this acted like it was never evacuated. read more

We stopped in here because our rented CMax was showing the "change oil immediately" icon and the rental agency told us to ignore it as the car wasn't due for an oil change for another 4000 miles. The icon was annoying, however, so we asked Brian at Cover-Jones if he could turn it off. He could and he did at no charge to us or the agency We were on our way in ten minutes. Brian also recommended the Homestead Diner for lunch - excellent choice. Thank you, Cover-Jones Ford! read more
