“Always very friendly and professional ! Greatly appreciate all that the team does ◡̈ They make car troubles less stressful and get the job done ! Will always rely on this shop for car maintenance/repairs”
“We rely on Hobson's to deliver honest, trustworthy, and competent service! They never disappoint. Price feels a bit higher than others with whom we work in WI but their quality and timliness is good and they resolve our issues in one visit. Friendly counter staff also.”
“So amazingly impressed with this service shop! They got me in quickly, looked at my car hooked it up to machines took it on a test drive then took me driving on a test drive to double check things. DID NOT Charge me anything for all of this diagnosing work! DID NOT Recommend replacing my transmission Or immediately jumping to costly repairs that may not be necessary and said that possibly just doing maintenance on it would do the trick checked everything out thoroughly told me to drive it carefully for 500 miles and hopefully all is well! I waited for my car as they have a nice quiet, waiting area, offering free beverages, and did my homework, in the company of their wonderful adopted cat, who was feral and adopted them as much as they adopted her. They knew almost every customer who came in by name And just seem like a genuinely caring, knowledgeable, and hard-working Center! So very happy I found them! Recommend them highly!”
“My wife and I live right down the street had issues with our Dodge caravan cooling system replace the water pump in oil cooling pump was very pleased on a prompt and quick work I would definitely recommend to a friend and I would definitely take our van back if we had any other problems thank you rapido for helping us out”

“The service provided was excellent, and the staff demonstrated professionalism and friendliness throughout my visit. Their pricing accurately reflects the quality of the parts used, as they are affiliated with NAPA Auto Parts. NAPA (National Automotive Parts Association) is recognized for supplying components that meet or exceed OEM standards, ensuring reliability and performance. The appointment process was smooth, and my vehicle service was completed efficiently within an hour. I highly recommend their shop for dependable, high-quality automotive care.”
“Just left here. I never leave reviews but I just felt like I had to leave a good review for these guys. Prob some of the best customer service Ive ever experienced. Always have came here. Just bought a new dodge ram. I have free oil changes from the dealership but I prefer to spend the money with these guys. Extremely polite, Explain everything in detail and never try to sell me stuff I don’t need. Customer service is everything to me. Hope you guys see this review. I appreciate yall.”
“Everyone was super helpful with my car!! I had my starter switched out and my crankshaft sensor. They did it in one day and the price was reasonable!! They even fixed this weird noise I didn’t mention. So helpful. My new mechanic!”

“I am so thankful for Mike, I called with a dead battery issues and he came right away. Helped answer my questions and even came with me to auto zone to make sure I didn’t stall out or have any issues getting there. Superb help, will highly recommend, and incredibly thankful.”
“I brought my vehicle in because I felt a noticeable brake pressure almost as if my fluid needed a flush. The tech drove my jeep around the block for a test drive and quickly visually inspected the brakes. He everything was fine. He mentioned he’d love to accept my money, but only wanted to do so honestly. He recommended a local jeep specific repair shop if I really felt it needed a second look. Honesty and good work is all a customer ask for. I can’t rate the work, but I can rate their integrity. Kudos Big John’s!”
“Tom and the team at Potter’s Precision Imports are great! Honest, fair pricing, and top-notch service. They work well together and take pride in what they do. Highly recommend!”
“Great staff, honest recommendations, had my Truck and SUV serviced over the last 2 weeks. I am confident they will keep both in great condition with maintenance and repair work.
Now August, had headlamps installed, poorly adjusted, returned to inform them lights need adjustment, they returned vehicle, they werent safely adjusted ill say.
Spent $189.00 at dealer in Georgia, now they are fine. Im going into today to see what their answer is for my issue.
Returned to explain concerns, after vacation I said I will bring in truck, which I still feel there is an issue with lights. When I showed charges paid for dealer adjustment, “ What do you want us to do?” I replied, “ We will figure it out , when I return”. Honestly, I expect to be reimbursed, and a replacement light assembly installed. Lets see what happens. I will be returning 9/12/24.
I changed stars to 4, and will adjust after the resolving of the issues.”
“Traveling through Florida my truck broke down and Anthony and his crew took care of me quickly and got me back on the road I will definitely recommend C&E great customer service”
“This place is great!! I was recommended by a friend and have been here only twice so far as my car was under warranty until recently. I went in today because the plastic cover under my car fell down. I was sure I cracked it, as I had to drive a long way dragging it, and would need to pay significant money to replace it. But John was able to work me in AND fix the cover. BEST of all he did it at NO charge! They have as a customer for life now and I would recommend them to anyone!!”
“The techs at THIS particular location ALWAYS perform a full service oil change. They're always courteous and respectful. I never have to wait. GREAT PEOPLE.”

“Had a minor issue with my car so I came in and one of the guys there fixed it right away. They didn’t charge me anything as well which was really nice of them. Would recommend :)”
“Took my Jeep to them for a break job. They replaced the all four pads and rotors in a few hours. John gave me constant updates on what was going on. And the price was more than reasonable. They will be getting all of my business and referrals from now on.”
“I've been there a few times. This time I'm not sure they check any other fluids, air filter windshield blades. Washed half the windshield and didn't bother to reset the oil light on the dashboard. Don't know if it's worth trying again or just find somewhere else”
“The team here is awesome. I had an issue with my car, pulled in, and they were so kind and helpful. Back on the road in minutes! Definitely recommend this location! Awesome staff!”
“My husband and I came in to just take a look at a vehicle he had seen on the website. Christine Glass came over to ask us if we needed any help and she told us the details about the vehicle and we took a test drive. I’ve never had a good experience so we were not expecting to get a vehicle the same day but this is exactly what we were looking for. The care Christine and the whole team gave us while we were getting the finance information was phenomenal. She even took us on a tour of the new facility. We will be doing business with them again for the next vehicle.”
“Rashard Aaron and Tae did a great job on my car with all the services provided and needed. I was looking for a new place to go close to my house and Take 5 will have my business from now on. Thanks guys for a job well done!”
“Came here after being scammed at Firestone, had a nail in my tire completely unpatchable, came in and was attended within 5-10 minutes of arriving (due to appearance of working in other cars) with quick turn around for complete brand new tire replacement. Whole transaction was probably under 20-30 minutes.
$70 cheaper than what Firestone quoted
Accepted Apple Pay”
“Great service! This was my first time and I was genuinely pleased how fast and kind the attendants were. RC was very patient in explaining things to me and overall warm in demeanor. Dakota also serviced my car at the end and went out of his way to help me figure out what kind of paint I would need. You can tell there's great management in how welcoming and happy the workers are. I will def be back!”
“These guys are professional, kind, informative and fast! They dont make you feel uncomfortable or pressured by upselling you, but they still do their due diligence by making recommendations based on their routine diagnostics they do. Thanks guys!”
“Justin was great to handle the tires and other items. It was a smooth process. Justin was attentive and prompt from the time I walked into the store till the time I left. Thank you Justin. Your service was top notch and 5-star.”
“This is a great place to get your oil changed. I told the mechanics I couldn't afford an expensive oil change, so they did my oil change for $28!! Yes, that's right, $28. They didn't try to upsale me on filters or wiper blades, they just went to work and completed the oil change is less than 30 minutes. It was so refreshing to not be inundated with all the issues mechanics find under the hood. The guys were friendly, professional and timely. This Jiffy Lube location is on Central Avenue.”
“I've been going to Charlie's for 40 years,always great service in a timely and fairly priced manner.
Hard to find an honest repair shop,but Charlie's is just that!
I would highly recommend Charlie's
Thx for the great service over the years!
