I’ve been taking my car to Sanfellipo‘s for a few years now. Recently I happened to go over a speed bump in my neighborhood a little bit too quickly and knocked the heat shield under my car loose. They were able to fit me in quickly and fixed not only the heat shield, but also a few other loose odds and ends underneath and around my car. I was really impressed by how thorough they were! And the price they charged was very fair.

This is the place you need to go. I have been to other shops but none compare to here. My last shop gave me the run around and i spend thousands to fix a problem they could not get. The techs here got it fixed the first time.
