"Outstanding work. I couldn't be happier. Having a car that's 20+ years old makes repairs difficult. They went above and beyond to satisfy my issues and more. I'll take my car again with no worries. Highly recommend to everyone. Friendly helpful & knowledgeable. Lee is super and I'm so appreciative. They went above & beyond."

"I had a bad water pump. Indian River quoted me $1k less than other places in the area. Turned out that I needed a whole new engine after driving on that busted water pump for a little over a year. I was able to get financing through them and would suggest Easypay or Koalifi because snap was trippin. Between ordering the part and repairs my car was done in about 2 weeks. Got a nice discount on top of that from Caroline cuz I’m a broke boy! Theresa offered great service. 10/10 great customer service and great work. Thanks to the guys who fixed my car too! 🙏🏿"

"Came here for a noise coming from my engine. Walked in and the receptionist was very wonderful. She is very knowledgeable with what needs to happen with their cars and is very approachable. She continuously communicated with me and her team throughout the process. They have a great team working here and would definitely bring my car back and recommend them to others."
