We've had all of our cars serviced at TMS over the last 10 years or so. Joe and his staff are always very friendly, prompt, and do high quality work for a good, honest price. We were very pleased with our recent experience and this is typical of the great service that TMS has provided us over the years. Thank you, TMS! Keep up the great work!

We were able to get the car in one day after calling for an appointment.  They were on time and courteous.  After checking over the car, they decided that the drive belt and axle were absolutely in working condition.  Our struts are leaking, but are not a safety threat and can be fixed in the near future.  All of this, and they didn't charge us a penny. 
TMS will be our go-to place for all of our auto care needs from this point forward!  I only wish we had found them sooner.

I took my car in to get it checked out - suspected brake issue, and also car was "thumping" on the highway.  Joe said the brakes were fine and that probably was just needing an oil change for the thumping as the car hadn't been driven for a while.  Honest, fast, fair = perfect experience.  I moved here a couple years ago and think I've finally found the car place for me.

We had brought our van in the previous week and were so happy that we brought the truck in too.  The communication was professional.  When the estimate was finished, I received a call before the work was started.  All the work was done the same day and the price was more than fair.  This shop makes the customer feel cared about.  Highly recommend going here with your cars.

Very professional and I was able to drop off the van the next day after calling for an appointment.  This is a busy shop but they do everything they can to help get your vehicle fixed.  I ended up bringing my truck in for work since the van did not need work done  I highly recommend this shop.  Fair price and Honest to boot..

Turns out it was missing a gallon of coolant due to a leak. It took a little time for him to find but it turns out that the leak was from my radiator cap. This was replaced same day and very quickly. Was able to get my car fixed on a Saturday great service and great guy.

My Oldsmobile Silhouette 2003 has 268000 miles, I would like to drive it to at least 300,000 miles.  Its been a great van, but it was making a lot of noise and the abs and traction lights were on.  I took it to a local dealer. The price to make the repairs was high, plus I was warned there may be more problems due to rusting.  I almost gave up the van.  I decided to check Angie's List for ABS & Traction and brakes.  I found TMS listed, close by, reliable and low prices.  They found the problems with the ABS & Traction, RR wheel speed sensor defective, but they also found the other problems - washer pump burned out, Front sway bar broken, inner pipe in exhaust broken loose. My initial concerns were fixed along with the other problems.  All for a very low price and high quality.

They gave us an estimate and fixed the problem promptly. We have primarily used this shop for everything that goes wrong with our cars and always leave completely satisfied. They call and give an estimate before any work is done on the car, always finish the work in a timely manner and the prices are very reasonable. They have even checked for problems when a service engine light came on and didn't charge us anything when it was a minor problem. I highly recommend this company to anybody who asks.

I didn't take the van in myself, but the van was diagnosed with a few issues (not surprisingly).  They were very helpful in determining what was the best use of my budget to fix things that were safety issues and other care for longevity of the vehicle.  A few issues were considered tabled for the time being. They were helpful and the price was reasonable.

They had replaced the valve cover gasket a couple months before. It apparently started leaking after that. I took it back to them and they replace the valve cover gasket and cleaned the engine. And, there was no charge. You wouldn't get that kind of response from a dealer!

The oil leak did not stop so took the car back to them. They found out that the one of the hoses wasn't fixed properly while performing the pump replacement. They fixed it for free. No oil leak since then.
