Cj, Ilijah, and James all made my visit to this location great today! They were super friendly, quick, and thorough with explaining every part of the process to me. I left feeling like I actually understood what I just paid for and I really appreciate that. They didn’t try to sell me stuff I didn’t need but did give me all the information for maintenance that I should plan for soon. I’d highly recommend this location to anyone looking for friendly, honest, and quality work!

If I wanted to change the oil myself I would have did that brung my own oil and filter all they did was drain the oil I had to remove my own filter and put back the oil myself. Tech kept saying I’m bout loose the filter after telling him I got it let it fall down in the slot he finally dropped it it and stormed off not to be seen again, and this was the “quote on quote diesel guy”if you know a ram 3500 it’s made to drop the oil filter down so you can pull it out sideways I wouldn’t say service I would would say I rented a bay to change my oil

My brother and I were coming home from the airport and we had an oil light turn on. We stopped in to make sure everything was working appropriately. CJ and Gabe were who was assisting us today. They were absolutely incredible. We had a 20/10 experience, we both have decided we will make the drive to come to this location moving forward. Couldn’t have been a better experience! Thank you so much!
