FAQs
What's Your Warranty Policy for Parts and Labor?
Absolutely, we provide warranties for both parts and labor. We outline warranty terms by component: many OEM and premium aftermarket parts come with 24-36 months of protection, while wear items have different terms. Labor is typically covered for 12-24 months, aligning with parts as appropriate. We detail transferability terms-the majority of coverage stay with the vehicle, not the owner, unless otherwise noted. You'll get written coverage details on your invoice. Please ask us to provide your repair's precise warranty details before approving service.
Is It Possible to Wait On-Site During Service?
Indeed, you can typically wait on-site during your service, depending on available space and shop rules. We focus on customer comfort with comfortable waiting areas, internet access, and beverages. For quick services like basic repairs, inspections, and tire services, you'll typically wait between 30 and 90 minutes. For extensive services or detailed diagnostics, we advise leaving your vehicle to maintain accuracy and safety. Please book in advance, inform us of any time constraints, and we'll verify wait options during scheduling and arrival to align expectations.
Do You Offer Shuttle or Loaner Vehicles?
Yes. Think about the convenience of having a ride while we service your vehicle. We offer shuttle service and customer pickup within a defined radius for most appointments. For longer repairs, you can request a loaner vehicle; make sure to reserve early as loaner vehicles are limited. Provide your license and insurance, arrive on time, and confirm duration.
