I stopped going to my dealer quite some time ago and started going to a well-known mechanic chain about 7 years ago. Someone recommended RPM Auto Service and said that they’re good and they’re honest — two things that everyone looks for in a mechanic. Instead of $1700 for what I needed to have done, I only paid $320 and it was done well and with a smile.
Highly recommended!!

Finally found a trusted honest mechanic shop! Joe and his team not only are fast and honest, they love what they do. That makes a big difference from a client standpoint. He just wants the best for you and doesn’t sell you things you don’t need to change.
