Most Asked Questions
Are Parts and Labor Covered by Warranty?
Yes, you receive warranties covering both parts and labor. We outline warranty terms by component: many OEM and premium aftermarket parts include 24-36 months of protection, while wear items differ. Labor is typically covered for a period of 12-24 months, aligning with parts where relevant. We outline transferability terms-most warranties remain with the vehicle, not the owner, unless specified differently. We'll provide written coverage details on your invoice. Don't hesitate to ask us to provide your repair's specific coverage terms before proceeding with any repairs.
Can I Wait On-Site During My Service?
Indeed, you may usually wait on-site during your service, subject to available space and shop rules. We prioritize customer comfort with well-maintained facilities, wireless internet, and complimentary drinks. For routine maintenance like maintenance checks, oil services, tire work, you'll usually wait between 30 and 90 minutes. For diagnostics or major repairs, we advise drop‑off to maintain accuracy and safety. Please make an appointment, inform us of any time constraints, and we'll discuss wait options at booking and check-in to meet your scheduling needs.
Are Shuttle or Loaner Vehicles Available?
Absolutely. Imagine leaving your car for service while having transportation ready. We offer shuttle service and customer pickup within a defined radius for most appointments.
