Over the…read moreyears I have my car fixed there, and almost all the representatives can remember my name and showed their care, excellent skills and willingness to help out. There was only one time of oil change, that a small mistake was made and they fixed it right away. I always feel so confident about their work, and usually it is done very fast. The gentlemen at the front desk are also very car savvy and provide useful suggestions on driving and maintenance. It feels like a family, and this place is owned by Confer's family for generations. The waiting area and restrooms are all pretty nice even though not too fancy. While waiting you can also go to check out the BMW section in addition to their Toyota car models. Really appreciate it! I miss the service there since I have left the area for four years .

I took my vehicle there and paid for a rough running engine diagnosis. In response, I received a…read morelist of possible causes and an estimate for well over $2k.

What I received was 'could be one or all of these things, and if paying us $2k to address this list doesn't fix your problem, oh well, we'll be happy to provide another estimate'.

I have had my vehicle to them in the past (almost 5 years ago) and they were excellent. Recently…read moretook my wife's car there for service, which we had at another shop that they couldn't fix or said was normal, and Hunter's garage was able to fix it. Not only did they fix the issue, they kept me informed of the progress, and what the issue was. They then checked multiple other points of inspection on the car, sent pictures and information on what they found. They keep you informed, and let you make decisions on what you would like them to do. They do all of this and send you estimates through the entire process. I HIGHLY recommend them. They will be getting all of my business moving forward.

Michael looked at it and said that he could fix it then and there. 15 minutes later it was done. When I asked him how much I owed him he said no charge. No charge - I was shocked. His reasoning was that I had driven a little way to get there and that it was his lunchtime. Even if I had paid I would be writing this review. From the first moment of our phone conversation to the time I waved goodbye, Michael's friendly and helpful tone is the kind of business I want to support.

I would prefer to just refer friends and family to them in the future - but if I need body work, they are my choice hands-down!

I've been going there for at least 15 years for numerous issues and they've always been friendly, patient and highly competent. My only gripe is that like all dealership affiliated repair shops, they are WAY expensive! That must be at least in part because they are obliged by the terms of their contract to use only Toyota parts. For an old car like my present one, that's really not worth it. I wouldn't use them if it weren't covered my insurance.

DO NOT GO HERE. The mechanics themselves just want to do their jobs, but the manager dude (I guess…read morehis name is Josh?) is shady asf and talks down to women. Nick had previously resealed the transmission pan on my Subaru (it was leaking before when I had tried to seal it myself with an anaerobic sealant). So he fixed it, but it started leaking again. It's a known flawed design from Subaru (the pan doesn't use a gasket but just mates metal to metal) and so it's a common issue with subarus. Anyway, Josh tried to gaslight me and tell me that the leak was actually coming from the output shaft seal because "the wind was pushing the oil leak down and making it look like the pan was leaking." In reality, he just didn't want to redo the repair because it would cost him time x money on his own dime + expensive CVT fluid. He thought he could just gaslight me about what was happening as a solo female and I'd just pay up. Well, I didn't take his bs bait. This is exactly why I started doing my own repairs on my car because you can't trust these dudes. At the very least, Josh could've tried to work with me instead of starting an argument, like say "I can see why you'd think that and we can repair xyz at discounted rate and if the transmission pan is still leaking then we'll replace that on the house." You're not very good with zero customer service skills.

I'm a fairly competent mechanic, myself, but no longer choose to work on cars so I some idea of what good autobody and mechanical work is. All the work we've had done has been excellent, they have always stuck to their estimate, have always been able to schedule the work quickly and have had it finished when they said they would. My wife stopped in one day with a light bulb burned out. I don't know if they recognized her as a regular customer, but they stopped what they were doing and replaced the bulb, then my wife had to insist that they charge her for the work. If there is a better shop anywhere in the area, I haven't heard of it.
