We were stranded in a pretty remote rural area of Kansas, hours from home and with no idea who to contact for help. I have roadside assistance on our vehicle policy through State Farm and used their app to report the problem, and identity our location. The app then used their network to arrange for a towing service to respond. We were conected with Lucas Towing Of Kansas, LLC, a Veteran-owned business out of Salina, Kansas. They responded very promptly and were great in arranging not only the tow, but also for a ride for my wife and I. They kept in communication every step of the way and through the State Farm app we could "see" on a map how they were progressing in getting to us. Lucas, the owner, was great in speaking with me and ensuring we would be taken care of and had what we needed. Mary, who communicated with me on "the office stuff" was so friendly and patient with my questions. Ed, the tow driver, was a great guy and so helpful when he arrived, loaded the Tahoe up, and then made to haul to Hutchison, Kansas to a Chevrolet service center. Thanks to Lucas, Mary, and Ed! You each made a stressful situation much easier to get through than it could have been. We appreciate you all.

Since returning to the Salina area from out of state, we've had Virg's work on our stuff- both…read moreforeign and domestic- four times. Our problems included brakes, engine replacement, driveline repair, and electrical. We have been very satisfied each time. Our Jeep brakes, for example, now have a lifetime warranty as do some of the other repairs. I have never encountered this elsewhere. Virg and the staff have been very good at explaining the recommended course of action and the alternatives. We have never had a hint of upselling there- and in a couple of instances, Virg shopped around to find the best price on an expensive part. I've been in shops where it looks like they want to turn a simple repair into a complete restoration, and it's no fun. As we recall, Virg's shop has been here for around 40 years. The mechanics have a little grey hair, and a lot of experience. It's the best shop in town.

Best in Salina for car batteries, alternators, wiring, distributors and other electrical components…read morefor cars and small trucks. Mr. Hemmy is knowledgeable and helpful and will not try to upsell unneeded parts/components. They will swap out batteries for you upon purchase and their cost is much lower than dealerships or aftermarket repair shops. I manage six vans as part of a fleet and a local aftermarket shop told me one of our vans with less than 30,000 miles needed a new battery and would not hold charge. I drove the van to Clare where Mr. Hemmy said a battery with 30,000 miles on it should be good. He then wheeled out his tester and advised the battery was good and did not need replacement. He did not charge us for the diagnosis and our company added him as a vendor. That same battery is still in the van after 60,000 miles - saving our company several hundred dollars.

Had the best experience with Clare Generator, and specifically, Paul Hemmy, who not only was able…read moreto diagnose the problem with my alternator, but saved me a ton on money by only doing the work that needed to be done, replacing the rectifier and a few brushes. Even though they could not fit me in on the day of the incident, I had my car worked on the next day and they were done in a few hours. With only one car to my name, this quick turnaround was highly desired. And, their work is guaranteed. Recommending them to all who need any work of this kind.

The guard behind the front bumper under my car was knocked loose and if I were to back up, it would've ripped it off. I took the car into Conklin to have that repaired. They were busy and so couldn't get the car right in they gave me a ride home. The plan was for them to come pick me up once the car was finished, but when they called to tell me the car was done they told me they were dropping the car off for me at my home. I was amazed and so appreciate this wonderful service wonderful staff I recommend them highly.
