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.

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…

Great service and quick only issue with all auto places is waiting on parts, but has nothing to do with the repair shop. Also giving 5 stars due to them taking care of my mother's vehicles. How they respect and treat her and each customer says a lot thank you!

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.

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!

They were so helpful and got me right in for an oil change, did a great inspection and were able to do necessary repairs the same day. Picked my car up that evening after work to find it so nice and clean, ready to go. Everything went smoothly and efficiently with no hassle whatsoever. I appreciated their professionalism and kindness.

My family and I have been using Oswald service Inc for nearly 10 years now. I personally have a 26 year old mini van that I want to keep running for as long as possible.
