Extremely overpriced and unprofessional! They charge way more than other repair shops, have no respect for customers’ time, and provide inaccurate diagnoses. High prices, poor service, and a complete waste of time and money. Definitely would not recommend!

This place was way overpriced he was way too much for the work that was done they misdiagnosed the car and I have to pay for their time it was a one price deal thing and I didn't get any other choices of lesser price because I know I could have got it done cheaper somewhere else but because I was stuck in the middle…

I would highly recommend Stress Free Auto-Care. They took care of the repairs, they had a camera so I could watch & they communicated well with me the whole time. Very impressive & I will be going to them in the future.

I am happy to write a positive review for a company my husband and I have patronized for more than thirteen years. We have been very satisfied with their friendly service as well as their long-lasting, quality tires. Their prices are fair and they get the work done in the time they tell you it will take.

I messaged late about an electrical issue and they took my vehicle in anyway and fixed/repaired my issue in a timely manner. I cannot recommend them highly enough.

I have been going to Tires Unlimited for about 6+ years now and they have not let me down once! No matter what request or car trouble I give them they always solve it quickly, efficiently, and most importantly economically. They are one of the most trustworthy auto shops in the area.

Really easy to make an appointment. They get you in really quick, both times I've been there they've had it finished before the estimated time. They are also really thorough. I went to a different place a few weeks before taking my car here, and asked that place to check out my car to see what's wrong, he said…
