Never had a problem with the service, however said I had to pay THEIR credit card fee of 3% on a $6,600.00 bill! That's 200 extra dollars TO PAY THEM! Can I charge them the 17% I have to pay to carry any debt on my card?! The only ones who can afford this are the wealthy and they are screwing the poorer of us. I…

I went to Tom's Auto Center for a second opinion on my car, and I'm glad I did. They were honest, took the time to explain everything they found in detail, and made sure I understood my options. Based on my experience, I plan to return to them for future service.

We had my grandsons older Chevy Malibu towed to Tom's because of excessive engine temperature warnings on the dashboard. After their diagnosis two temp sensors and housings needed replacement. They were courteous and communicated well. After paying for the work I reviewed the receipt, and was shocked at the prices…

I brought a used truck I just purchased in for an oil change and 'wellness check'. It ended up having a plethora of issues. I'm very lucky that Tom was willing to work on it, as most shops probably wouldn't have. Truck had wrong engine harness, missing engine mount bolts, bell housing bolts, A/C issues and so on...…
