Saved a lot of money, found and repaired a leak in my radiator and I saved a lot of money by them doing the repairs instead of the dealership.

I've been going here for a bit now since I moved into the area and don't plan on going anywhere else. No-pressure shop that's owned and operated by car guys who combine their passion with their work and are there to help you with whatever you throw their way.Turnaround time has always been as-quoted or sooner, prices are great, employees are super friendly (Steve is all smiles all the time), and I've always gotten great recommendations from them for things they don't specialize in. Definitely worthy of 5 stars!

Best place for tires. Competitive prices and quick service. Thanks for the help Jose. I'll be a returning customer not just for tires but general repair and service. Werika Tatsiu

WARNING: HomeTown Motors by MEBray at Citysearch too bad I could not give this dump minus stars! This place was a horrible experience. I found a beautiful Jag there. Drive it and fund many things wrong with it, however they promised to make it right. We made the deal and they said my financing was aproved. I had the car about 3 days and it was awsome. I went in to get it fixed and they said that was suddenly an issue with my financing. they took the car back. Of course I was very upset. then about a week latter they called one of my references to get a hold of me. they had been able to secure the financing. I called them right away. I spoke to CID. He said the finance people were in and approved my app on the spot. he asked me if I still wanted the car and of course I did. He said to come and pick it up, it was all mine. I paid for the insurance and accessories. I made it in at about 5:00pm the next day. I was told that suddenly for soem reason they could not explain my financing was turned down. This is less than 24 hours latter. However he said I could pick out another car on his lot and he would sell that one to me. I said No I came here to purchase the Jag. He went into the backroom with his buddies for about a half hour to "call the bank" after about 30 min he came back out and said my down payment had to now be 7500.00 on a 14,000 car, This is up from $4500 the day before. and it had to be in CASH. I was outraged and left. I called back about 30 min latter and I aske him what day he lied. yesterday or today. He gave me some crappy answer and I hung up. I have filed a complaint with the BBB, here and a few more. I am not going to stop until they make this right.

Had a flat a year ago and stopped by and they fixed it in ten minutes. Did not want payment. Gave them a cash "tip" for their good service.Next two months ago bought four new tires. Called, made appt. arrived, tires on and out the door in less than 30 minutes. Price was right.Today, had a low pressure tire warning. Stopped by and they checked the tires, no puncture, added air and again did not want payment. They have a good attitude and excellent service.

Great Job! My car has never ran so good! Very friendly!! Will be coming back here!
