I love that they do a diagnostic, so you know what needs done. The staff is friendly and will keep you updated as they need. They even can help you decide what is NOW, and what is "OK, maybe later." I've taken all my over the road vehicles, yes, even my horse trailer to WEAC and been completely satisfied with the…

I had an A/C issue and I had an idea of what was wrong. They listened to my concerns and then investigated the entire vehicle very thoroughly. I was then sent a report of additional items of concern that were found above and beyond my A/C issue. There was no hard sell and only recommendations of services needed but…

I absolutely love coming here for my auto needs. Everyone at Western Edge makes you feel welcome, they do great work, and above all, they are honest. Fair pricing and when I go there I know I won't need to revisit with the same issue. I've been going here for a few years now and don't see that changing anytime soon.

I've been coming here for years! Melissa is awesome and she knows cars. I've never been disappointed. They may be a little more expensive then other places, but you're paying for their experience. This last trip was an emergency repair. I absolutely had to get my car back the next day, and Melissa made it happen. I…

My whole family brings their cars to Western Edge. They are very honest about what you need to get serviced, and what you can wait on. I never feel pressured to get something done on my car, which happens at other repair shops. Pricing and repair times are very transparent and Western Edge does their best to get…
