One time recently there was a leak after they'd worked on our vehicle, and they fixed it as soon as we brought it back in.

Great work, great customer service. I've been taking our cars there for years. They're always friendly, patient in explaining options, and quick to finish (often well before the time expected). I've only taken advantage of the ride to work offer once, but it was very handy.

I do all my business at Don's. They are reliable, friendly, and do good work at a fair price. This time I had a coupon from my daughter's school for 20% off that applied to the service!

Very good job - having talked to some friends who do their own car repairs they probably overcharged us just a tad. Other than that, this service experience was outstanding all around

Great. First of all they are now called "Don the Car Care Man" so there's been a name change. I walked in, asked to get an estimate and they said they could do within an hour. Luckily I live nearby so I went home during the wait. Came back, had to wait a bit more but they got back to me with a diagnosis and estimate quickly. Luckily the problem only involved a part of the muffler, not the whole thing. I took it in the next morning and left it for the day. But they called around noon to say it was done. Price was as quoted. A great job overall and they were very professional.

I appreciated their flexibility in servicing my vehicle the same day. Didn't really like the price, but since it needed a new catalytic converter, ya gotta pay the price. I have since heard from a friend with the same sort of car, that similar work on her car cost $300 more.

I have been using them for many years now and they are always good to deal with. They are becoming an all service station and they are actually in the process of changing their name. They are always very honest in their work and they do it in a timely fashion.
