Matt was on time and very knowledgeable. He jumped my battery and even gave air to my tires when I originally just needed my van to turn on. He noticed my tires were low in air and he was very right. He made the whole process easy. Great service and highly recommend!

Called AAA to get a jump start for my car. Matt (675) from P&M Automotive was at my location within 15-20 minutes from when I called. Matt was very professional and once the vehicle was started ran a couple of test to make sure the battery, alternator, and other systems were working correctly. I would highly recommend P&M Automotive for roadside service.
