Today I stopped in spur of the moment because my Subaru Forester was making a racket due to a loose pipe that would not stay on it's bracket. In less than 20 minutes, they had fabricated a permanent fix for my problem and didn't even charge me. Last year, they replaced a heat shield at substantial savings after explaining my options.

I highly recommend them to anyone looking for great service!
