One question I have when I move to a new area is: Where is a capable, honest, reasonable auto maintenance/repair shop? When I moved to Southeastern Seminary as a student, SEVERAL students recommended Auto Care of Wake Forest. They inspect your car, and educate you so you understand what your car needs to prolong its life and make it as safe as possible. We have two vehicles--a Camry and an F150--that we've been taking there since 2006. I have recommended them to scores of people. They don't try to sell you maintenance you don't need. I once asked them when they were fixing my car why they didn't replace a certain thing they included in my initial estimate. They told me that after further investigation it didn't need replacing, which saved me money. Sometimes, though, they have had to break the hard news to me that something more serious and costly needed repair. I have enough history there to know they're not just blowing smoke--they are being honest about what needs to be done. To date, I have never had to return something they didn't fix right the first time. They're capable, honest, reliable, and they have that small-town friendliness. When I move away from here, I'm going to have a hard time finding someone else I trust with my vehicles like I trust these guys.
