Rod's has been great - thorough in diagnosis, high-quality work, and so nice to work with. A 20+ year-old, high-mileage car that I always wanted came my way, and Rod's did a fantastic end-to-end inspection, and has done wonders for getting the vehicle dialed so I can really enjoy it.

The first time I've ever had a problem with my car and they were so nice and understanding, really seemed caring too, offered multiple ways to get my work done so I wouldn't stress so much about cost. Can't say good enough things about this place and the people here.
