Good guys down here at Northern BM. The Mrs was worried with an error we got but it ended up being an easy fix and they didn't even charge us. They spent close to 45 minutes with us and still didn't ask for anything even though we offered. 10/10

John, the owner, showed me just how much he cares about his customers, and his business, when he went out of his way to deliver a great customer experience. With his approachable style and reasonable manner he worked hard to make good of a difficult situation beyond his control. Well done John! - 5 stars. Thanks

THE NEW OWNER takes money and then denies knowing a Customer whose Service books Tell the story of Many years of Exclusive Service years taking money, a simple tighten up of previous non Torqued work in excess of $3,900. They said they did it. Peddars said it was all still loose. DO NOT USE Bad vibe when owner comes in as well. Might be ok for oil changes. Might.
