  • I gave them a short notice on my vehicle. So I was very impressed and pleased that they were able to get my car in and out with such a short time frame. I told them that I really needed my car on that day before the close and they accommodated my needs.

  • Rick and his staff were extremely knowledgeable when it came to my old '97 Toyota 4Runner. I had some clutch issues that persisted even after they replaced it. Knowing we needed the vehicle, Rick took time during his Christmas holiday to diagnose the issue and figured out what the problem was and fixed it. They are honest and upfront about expected costs. I would highly recommend Good Cents Auto for your auto needs!

  • Friendly staff, knowledgeable mechanics. They really went beyond what’s expected. Even cleaned off the dead lizard that was stuck to my dash!
    - Terrill Norman. 11/13/2019
  • I was informed every step of the way of what was going on with my vehicle. Very friendly staff.
    - Stephanie Gravois. 5/29/2019
  • This place was amazing! When ask to see if they could check my car they scheduled me quickly to check it for the next day in the morning. They took about an hour to check my car and give me a diagnosis. A quick and easy fix on my car that had a electrical problem. They fixed it in less than an hour. Got there at 9am and was leaving the shop around 10:40 am they made sure my car had perfect cool air. They are super friendly, kind and very honest! Also did not charge me a crazy amount comparing to the dealership. Saved me $1,000.00 and Extremely happy with my working AC in my car!

    - Lori Hutchinson. 2/17/2018
  • Quality, great people.
    - Dana Killian. 2/13/2018
  • As a small business owner, it means a lot when other businesses share your same core values & go out of their way to help you in any way possible. My car is cooling properly & my issues were resolved. I was recommended other services needed at my next oil change, but was not “upsold” any extra services/repairs that were not needed. They even found out that the lugnuts on my tires were locked, so if I had a flat, I would literally be stuck on the side of the road with no way to change my tires! They fixed that for me at a very minimal cost. The staff is super friendly & inform you about what is going on with your vehicle every step of the way, so there are no surprises. That means way more than you know! Thanks for everything!
    - Amber Powell. 1/21/2018
  • I did some damage to my car at 5 am on 12-28 and I got my car back at 2 pm on 12-29! These are the best group of people I know and I would recommend them 100 times over!!! Mandi definitely went above and beyond for me and I am forever greatful! I would give them way more than 5 stars if I could!

  • Best place to get your car fixed..
    - carey westbrook. 2/21/2017
  • I started bringing my car here last year when a friend told me about this place. Ive had a lot of work done to my car since. The guys in the shop are very friendly and knowledgeable. Anytime I have had a problem they have fixed it. If it is a car emergency they will do their best to fit you in, even if they have a busy day already. I would recommended them to anyone! Which I have!
