FAQs
What's Your Warranty Policy for Parts and Labor?
Indeed, we provide warranties covering both parts and labor. We specify warranty coverage by component: most OEM and premium aftermarket parts include 24-36 months of coverage, while wear items have different terms. Labor is usually covered within 12-24 months, aligning with parts where relevant. We detail transferability terms-most protection plans remain with the vehicle, not the owner, unless stated otherwise. You'll receive written coverage details on your invoice. Don't hesitate to ask us to quote your repair's exact coverage terms before proceeding with any repairs.
Can I Remain On-Site While My Service Is Being Performed?
Indeed, you may typically wait on-site during your service, subject to shop policies and bay availability. We focus on customer comfort with well-maintained facilities, wireless internet, and complimentary drinks. For routine maintenance like oil changes, inspections, tire rotations, you'll generally wait between 30 and 90 minutes. For extensive services or detailed diagnostics, we recommend leaving your vehicle to guarantee accuracy and safety. Please make an appointment, mention any time constraints, and we'll confirm wait options when booking and upon check‑in to align expectations.
Do You Provide Transportation or Temporary Vehicles?
Absolutely. Picture stepping out to a waiting ride as your vehicle gets expert care. Our shuttle service and pickup options are available within our service zone for most appointments. For longer repairs, you can request a loaner vehicle; make sure to reserve early as loaner vehicles are limited. Bring required documentation, be punctual, and verify service length. We'll coordinate drop-off, pickup, or loaner return to keep your day moving.
What Are Our Available Payment Methods and Financing Options?
We accept all major payment methods including cards, cash, and checks. Additionally, we feature flexible financing solutions to spread your payments over time. The process is straightforward - you'll complete a quick application, receive a fast decision, and select flexible terms with straightforward interest rates and no penalties for early payoff. We can divide your invoice across multiple payment methods and send digital receipts immediately. Request estimate pre-authorization to streamline your payment.
Are Original Manufacturer Parts Available?
Absolutely, we accept requests for OEM parts. We'll verify OEM availability for your vehicle by VIN number and give you cost information and timelines. If OEM parts are backordered or too expensive, we'll present premium aftermarket options that meet or exceed OE specifications. You make the final choice. We carefully detail part specifications, warranties, and service timeframes prior to work, and we'll wait for your go-ahead.
