“Amazing service and care when it comes to A-Plus 1 Auto!!! Needed to get my check engine light and EFC light checked in my Audi as the engine started making some shaking and stalling gestures as I drove it home the night before. I called in the morning, they got me in right away, and diagnosed the car. Went over all cost options, which were very fair, and had me on the road by noon. Good people who run a good business!”
“If you need an honest shop that's down to earth and trustworthy, this is an excellent choice. Clear communication, fair pricing, reliable timing. Thanks!”
“The reason I go back is because I trust Herb - he has always been honest with me. … He doesn't do work that isn't necessary but always gives me the option and his professional opinion.”
“I have had the benefit of having my car worked on by Herb and A Plus 1 previously and knew Herb to be honest, incredibly fair with prices and straightforward as to what the car needs. … The combination of honesty, straightforwardness, and fair pricing is hard to find in any field and A Plus 1 has it.”
“I have a very hard time trusting mechanics. The owner is very VERY friendly and knowledgeable, and most importantly, incredibly fair.”
