Professional staff tackled a replacement engine install for me. Quality products used throughout done with good workmanship. Staff kept me up to date on progress. Highly recommend. - Clif P.

I was having issues with my truck after having another shop work on it, these guys were close to my house and I figured I'd give them a shot. I would HIGHLY recommend them, they organized my truck to be towed to their shop, they worked on it figured out the issue and fixed it, I even told Chuck the hours I work and he knew when I was available for calls and for texts- and constantly kept me updated with what was going on with the truck to keep me in the loop. Customer service is excellent, prices are reasonable considering your dealing with a shop that isn't shady and is actually trying to figure out what the real issue is! Give them a shot, you won't regret it. Next time I have any issues this is the only place I'm taking my vehicle to! Thanks again y'all! - Reese A.

My 1978 Ford F-150 was having a no start issue. The previous Creekside owner could not get the issue fixed correctly. After putting a negative review on this site and Chuck responding professionally to my post I call him to see what we could do to resolve my issue. Chuck was happy to work with me on getting the job done right the first time. I would highly recommend this shop and the services they provide. Chuck is easy to deal with and he will work with until you are satisfied with your vehicle. Keep up the good work guys! - Roger A.

Honest, friendly people. The only place I trust. They have real mechanics and can work on my older cars as well as my new one. - Jake C.

There seems to be a common misconception among many that if you have an aftermarket/extended warranty, that your car, truck, SUV or Jeep must be taken to a dealership. This is not true. Non-dealership / Independent Automotive repair shops can service and repair your new or UNDER WARRANTY/EXTENDED WARRANTY. As a positive, at our shop you can get fast service and work with highly trained technicians! We'd love to take care of your vehicle for you and can do so right here at our automotive shop. Repairs by highly rated and trained automotive technicians with dealer rated diagnostic tools, at BETTER PRICING by a shop that knows you!

It is a law that independent automotive repairs shops can maintain and service your warranty. All consumers are protected by the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act, that is enforced by Federal Trade Commission (FTC). It prohibits a manufacturer from voiding the new vehicles warranty or a vehicles extended warranty because service was performed by a Non-Dealer/Independent Repair shop.

Per the FTC, “It's illegal for a dealer to deny your warranty coverage simply because you had warranty work or routine maintenance or repairs performed by our automotive shop. Routine maintenance can include anything from oil changes, tire rotations and belt replacement, to fluid checks, flushes, new brake pads and inspections.” It is also important to note that the “Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act makes it illegal for a company to void your warranty or deny coverage under the warranty for the simple cause that you used an aftermarket or recycled part.”

One of the major perks to bringing your vehicle to an independent repair shop is the ability to make your money go further. Many times, warranties will have a limit or a deductible. Our goal is to make your warranty work for you.

Lastly, If you are on the fence about whether or not to purchase an AFTERMARKET or EXTENDED warranty. We suggest opening a savings account for your car and putting back money for possible breakdowns. While warranties are great the limitations can sometimes outweigh the benefits.

Whichever option you may choose we will be there for you every step of the way! We look forward to taking care of your new or under extended/aftermarket warranty, car, truck, SUV or Jeep right here. Give us a call today!

It’s not always easy to recognize when your vehicle is suffering from a simple problem that requires a little maintenance and TLC or there is real engine damage as symptoms can be overlooked and seen as “normal.” While not all sounds and smells may threaten the life of your car or truck engine, there are some obvious warning signs that require a vehicle inspection here at the shop right away.
