Questions and Answers
Do You Offer Warranties on Parts and Labor?
Absolutely, we offer warranties covering both parts and labor. We specify warranty coverage by component: many OEM and premium aftermarket parts come with 24-36 months of protection, while wear items may vary. Labor is usually covered within 12-24 months, matching parts as appropriate. We detail transferability terms-most protection plans transfer with the vehicle, not the owner, unless stated otherwise. You'll receive written coverage details with your invoice. Don't hesitate to ask us to quote your repair's exact coverage terms before proceeding with service.
Can I Wait On-Site During My Service?
Indeed, you can generally wait on-site during your service, based on available space and shop rules. We focus on customer comfort with clean seating, Wi‑Fi, and refreshments. For basic services like basic repairs, inspections, and tire services, you'll typically wait half an hour to an hour and a half. For extensive services or detailed diagnostics, we suggest drop‑off to ensure accuracy and safety. Please schedule ahead, note any time constraints, and we'll confirm wait options at booking and check-in to align expectations.
Do You Provide Transportation or Temporary Vehicles?
Yes. Think about the convenience of having a ride while we service your vehicle. Our shuttle service and pickup options are available within a defined radius for most appointments. When repairs take more time, loaner cars are available; availability is limited, so follow our reservation policy to secure one. Bring required documentation, be punctual, and verify service length. We'll manage vehicle exchanges to ensure your convenience throughout service.

Do You Offer OEM Parts If Requested?
Absolutely, you're welcome to specify OEM parts. We'll verify OEM options for your vehicle by VIN number and share pricing details and lead times. If OEM parts are backordered or too expensive, we'll review high-quality aftermarket alternatives that match or surpass OE specifications. You make the final choice.
