Most Asked Questions
What's Your Warranty Policy for Parts and Labor?
Yes, we provide warranties for both parts and labor. We outline warranty duration by component: many OEM and premium aftermarket parts come with 24-36 months warranty, while wear items differ. Labor generally comes covered for a period of 12-24 months, matching parts where relevant. We detail transferability terms-most warranties transfer with the vehicle, not the owner, unless specified differently. You'll get written coverage details with your invoice. Feel free to ask us to quote your repair's specific coverage terms before approving any repairs.
Am I Able to Stay On-Site While Being Serviced?
Indeed, you are welcome to generally wait on-site during your service, depending on shop policies and bay availability. We emphasize customer comfort with comfortable waiting areas, internet access, and beverages. For routine maintenance like basic repairs, inspections, and tire services, you'll usually wait 30-90 minutes. For extensive services or detailed diagnostics, we advise dropping off your car to maintain accuracy and safety. Please book in advance, inform us of any time constraints, and we'll discuss wait options at booking and check-in to meet your scheduling needs.
Do You Offer Shuttle or Loaner Vehicles?
Yes. Picture stepping out to a waiting ride as your vehicle gets expert care. We provide transportation services including shuttle and pickup within our service zone for most appointments. For longer repairs, you can request a loaner vehicle; availability is limited, so follow our reservation policy to secure one. Provide your license and insurance, arrive on time, and confirm duration. We'll coordinate drop-off, pickup, or loaner return to keep your day moving.
What Are Our Available Payment Methods and Financing Options?
You can pay with various payment options including credit, debit, cash, and checks. We also offer multiple financing choices for easier payment management. The process is straightforward - simply fill out a brief application for quick approval and choose your preferred terms with transparent APRs and zero prepayment penalties.

Can You Get OEM Parts When Needed?
Absolutely, we accept requests for OEM parts. We'll verify OEM options for your vehicle through your vehicle's VIN and give you cost information and timelines. When OEM components are unavailable or cost-prohibitive, we'll review quality aftermarket substitutes that satisfy or better OE specifications. You make the final choice. We carefully detail part specifications, warranties, and installation schedules prior to work, and we require your confirmation first.
