Bismark was extremely professional and knowledgeable. The repairs were done on time. He explained every step and let me know all the warranties. Skip the dealer; I highly recommend Premier1 for all your auto care.

Folks, there is a difference between car dealerships and Premier1. Premeir1 offered a better warranty than a dealership and better pricing. I had my front brakes upgraded on my Q50 infiniti. Bismarck is my go to advisor..!!!! Thank you for your diligence and positive attitude. It is greatly appreciated. See you guys soon
