I just found this great Auto Shop (My C.A.R. Center) the same day that I REALLY needed to get my oil changed. Mike was very patient with my lack of knowledge about my vehicle specifics, total pro, made me feel comfortable right away. They did a great job at a great price. I definitely recommend and I will be back!

John and Kerry are great Christian folks running a great auto repair shop. John goes above and beyond in every repair job and inspection he accomplishes. In times when you wonder if a repair place is going to take advantage of you, this is the place you want to make it your "Go To" friendly neighborhood auto shop. I highly recommend them.

I cannot say enough good things about this shop and its staff! Every time I’ve brought them a job that others wouldn’t consider, they have gotten it done with ease. I trust nobody else with my 2019 Audi S5. 1000% recommend going with these guys!
