Dear Yelpers: Sit down and take a minute to read this:…read more this is a true story. I had a nail in my tire this morning and didn't want to take any chances with it so I started calling around Manitowoc to see who could get me in ASAP. Are you sitting down? I called eight different service centers!! now I understand it was a Friday at 1 o'clock, but I called eight different service centers in Manitowoc and all of them could not fit me in ! even my local regular shop said I could drop it off and come back for it a few hours later in the day but I had errands to run and things to do and I needed the car fixed immediately. my father said "did you try Novak?" He gave me the number and I dialed it right up. I spoke with a friendly agent, I told her my story and I said "do you think I can get into your shop right now?" and she said "absolutely come on down." I was quite excited . I drove over - they pulled the nail out. It was nothing serious. It wasn't leaking any air and my $charge$ was zero for 10 minutes of work. Maybe it was 5 minutes of work. For that reason , I will be coming back for future service. I might be easy to impress, but after this experience, i'll give them another try!

I recently had a routine oil change appointment for my car. A day before the appointment I notice…read moreone of the tires on my car was losing air. I contacted Paul Safranski at Safranski Tire and Auto to see if they would have time while they were changing the oil to find the cause. They were able to find a nail in the tire leak and fix the problem on top of the oil change. Turned out a nail was in the tire. Safranski Tire and Auto Team always do a great job!

FYI update: Though a great idea and offer, it never came to fruition. Thought it only fair to add…read morethat. Update: I've been back here twice and have received the same courteous and knowledgeable service. Not by any fault of theirs, my car has had additional problems to fix. Today I called and told them the problem and they came to tow it. This is where it gets good. I don't normally need my car that often, but of course I have a baby shower to attend out of town tomorrow. The woman out there know, I don't have a choice but to drive the 2 hours to attend after committing to be there. And I want to. Anyway...I started calling around for a rental. None available or they won't be open when I can get there. Small town problems. I called Satori's explained the problem and they are providing me with a loaner car. They were going to do that anyway as customer service while working on my car. What they don't do is pick people up. Understandably they are busy. Knowing there was no way I could get there before 7pm to pick up the car he decided they would pick me up. That is above and beyond and I want them and others to know how much I appreciate it. Customer service is a dying art. I am giving a pre review based on my initial experience. I will update after the work is done. I am giving them 5 stars for customer service. I bought a 3rd party car for a winter beater. I drive a mini and they aren't Wi. winter friendly. My father did the work it needed mechanically, but as anyone who owns a foreign car knows, finding the right mechanic is hard in a small town. The owner took the time to call my father so he would understand what I wasn't able to communicate in mechanic speak. He then called me back to set up the appointment. I had a choice to drop it off at the night deposit or show up when they opened. I chose to show up in the morning because he said " It might be better so I can see what problem you are having and to get to know you and your husband." That is customer service.
