They were the only ones that could get me in and I’m overjoyed that I went with them! Amazing work!
Staff is very helpful and thorough.
Everyone was great. Thanks
Oswald’s helped us out in a big way. Our Buick broke down right before a big family trip. Thankfully we had another car but they were great to work with and got the car in faster than we originally expected. I love that their diagnostics goes over everything that is wrong with the car. They did a great job and…
Oswald’s was very informative as to what needed to be done to our vehicle. They were quick to get the job done! I would recommend and will be back for future service needs!!
I came into Oswald's to get an overview of my old van, after getting a quote from another mechanic. They found the actual issues needing to be resolved to get me safely back on the road, understood my financial situation and worked with me to make it happen. They were patient, kind, understanding and best of all my…
I feel that I was i ovrr chatged for them just to just look at mt vehicle 547.00$and not to fix anything
JUN 2026 - 2007 Honda Pilot. Yup again... Thanks again for putting up with my inner Karen. Josh, Chris, Amber, and Jesse, you guys/gals are awesome. So far no leaks... knock on wood! APR 2026 - Yup! Here I am again, this time for a 2007 Honda Pilot. I got the rear main seal replaced, and so far, so good—no leaks,…
They did an excellent job working on our Jeep and made the whole process easy and stress-free. Chris was great about keeping us updated throughout the entire process and made sure we always knew what was going on with the repairs. The quality of the work was excellent, and what really stood out was the follow-up…
Every time I have used Oswalds they do a great job. They get right to the point, list what needs fixed and what can be watched. This makes dealing with them very refreshing.
Great team at Oswald, they did an oil change and quick tune-up. We will use them for all car services in the future.
Oswald Service has a good reputation with some of my friends and I have always been satisfied with everything I have had done there. I trust them to tell me what needs done and know they do a thorough job. I will always rely on them when I need anything done in the future. The people that work there are good people.
They’ve had my truck in a few times this year and both times have been fantastic. The staff are super awesome people. Very friendly and very knowledgeable. The work was done in a good time frame and at a reasonable price. Never tried to upsell something if it wasn’t necessary but definitely pointed it out as…
I have an intermittent coolant leak and took it to Oswald’s to see if they could find where it was coming from. They were unable to ID the source of the leak, and so ended up not charging me anything, even though they did a pressure test quoted at $180. Also filled up the coolant reservoir which was almost empty…
They were amazing. Very fast n efficient!! I was very grateful that they could help me out!!
Needed an emergency repair. Josh worked me in immediately and got me on the road right away. I have never had a bad experience with Oswald's. The above was posted a year ago and I wanted to add to it. I have been a customer of Oswald's for six or seven years. Kevin the owner and Josh the service manager bend over…
Oswald’s always does outstanding work. I had a steering box replaced, oil leaks and the A/C repaired. Everything works great and when I’ve had any issues with repairs they have stood behind their work. Great shop and even better people!
These guys have helped me out several times without being sales oriented. Nothing but straight forward talk & honest recommendation. I appreciate that sooooooo much in these times of higher costs & needing to be budget friendly. They helped me out with drop off & pick up of my vehicle, sent updates via text which…
Oswalds goes above and beyond. I wouldn't go to any other mechanics!
I was first impressed with Oswald Service & Repair back in June (2020) when they very quickly did some repair work in multiple areas on the 2005 Subaru that my teenagers drive. I had shopped around and received quotes from other shops but their quote was the lowest so I went with them. Best automotive repair…
