Exceptional service: getting dealer to do warranty repair
My car needed a major warranty repair which had to be done by the dealer. From my research online I suspected the dealer might be reluctant to cover the repair. I called Dennis to get his advice, and he offered to take the car to the dealer for me - a "standard", complimentary service for long-time customers. Standard maybe, but a level of service almost unheard of these days.

As I feared, the negotiation with the dealer was not easy. At first they said the repair was not covered. Then the service writer said he would be off for two days and he would research the warranty when he came back. Not acceptable. Dennis went back the next morning with all the warranty information and the Toyota service bulletins and spoke to another service writer who agreed the repair was covered.

Unfortunately it did not end there. The dealer promised the car would be ready several times, each time the afternoon came and went with no call from the dealer, not even a status. So every day Dennis called to remind them and ask what's going on, and then called me with a detailed update. In the end it took 7 working days and a lot of excuses before I got my car back, ridiculous given the job that had to be done.

Dennis spent a lot of his own time making sure that the dealer did the job right for me. He also spent a lot of time explaining to me what was going on and convincing me not to fly off the handle because it wasn't going to help (true). He took a lot of stress out of a difficult situation for me, and I'm very appreciative.

I highly recommend Dennis not only for the high quality of his work, but for his exceptional service.

Once again, Dennis did a great job on my car. I had it towed to his shop and he checked it out and fixed it really fast and really well and just a pleasure to do business with.

Great First Time Experience
I visited for the first time a couple weeks ago for a window repair, and it was done quickly, and he saved me $100 by taking the time to find the part I actually needed. I will definitely come back

Makes room for emergencies
I heard a funny tinney sound and called Dennis. He had me stop by to see what was going on. My brakes were going out on me. He wisely had me leave my car, called a rental car company for me, and squeezed in the repair the next day. I always trust Dennis to be astute, efficient, and fair. Plus I stay safe in my car. What a comforting feeling.
