They were fantastic! This was the second motor home that we were looking at buying. The first was a 24' motor home which they gladly inspected for us for $90 and gave us a complete rundown in writing of what was needed to get it in good enough shape to be safe to use. The second was a Toyota Dolphin mini motor home for which we asked just for a basic pre-purchase inspection. They did it for $50. Both times they requested that the vehicle stay over so that they could give us a more thorough report and did not charge extra for it. Everyone there was friendly. They knew who we were the second time in. They were not only knowledgeable but treated us professionally and showed concern for our needs and safety.

One of the best auto repair experiences I've ever had. The price was reasonable, compared to other quotes I got. What made me decide to go with them was my sense that they were honest, professional, and had an earnest desire to save me money. (I had investigated what needed to be done, and what I could postpone, beforehand, so I knew what they could/should have proposed.) The subsequent repairs, and their manner in dealing with me, proved my hunches correct.
They were resourceful (finding a way to repair a small plastic door part, rather than ordering a new one at considerable expense, for example) and there were no issues that required me to take the car back in. The estimate was detailed and in writing, and each task was explained to me in plain English. The job was done on time, with no surprises on cost. Plus, I got a ride to work and back while the car was being worked on. Overall, a great bunch.
P. S. The fact that Matt's Brake and Alignment is now a part of Absolute Auto Tech was also reassuring. I have done business at Matt's for many years, always with complete satisfaction.
