In many cases, he has taken photos and even videos of what is going on in the engine or from under the car on the lift, so that I can understand the problem (which I appreciate). He has serviced every car I've had, and I've been very happy to refer him to my friends and colleagues.

The local Ford dealer couldn't get me in for "3 weeks" and no one else seemed to have availability. I found Como Auto and they said they could get me. I sat in the waiting room and they were very busy with people/cars coming in and out but before I knew it they had test drove the car, ran a diagnostic, and communicated a straightforward assessment - a bad ignition coil. They replaced it and I was out the door in less than an hour. The price was very reasonable with no strange or surprising charges or fees. Straightforward and honest service - it's hard to find this any more. Highly recommend!

I also asked for them to tell me what was wrong and how much would it cost to fix it but the work was done already. They also did work that was already done prior to the car being turned in.
