Ron's Auto Repair

Okay, this guy goes from 4 stars to 5 stars. I needed my battery terminals replaced, they were corroded, and really rotten. didn't want to attempt it at the house, even if I was having a day where I felt like doing it. I am afraid my days of timkering with cars (which I love) are over, healthwise and my temperature guage has not worked since I got the car in april. I called ron, and he asked me to bring the car in, and give him a couple hours to work on it. I took it in on a wednesday, and picked it up thursday morning the battery cables are shiny, and the temp guage works..... he had to replace the sending unit the price was very reasonable.... $63.65 this is the first time I have taken a car in, and had work done on it for under $100 in probably 20 years. antifreeze good and green. cooler weather is coming..... I think my car is ready. the battery itself says JUNE 2002........ I will probably be writing a new battery review within the next 6 months :) once they are past 4 years old, you are on borrowed time..... and a car is like a woman.... on a really cold morning........ they won't turn over..... blame Rodney Dangerfield for the joke. no nasty e-mails, please....

I have lived here for 2 years now, and never needed a mechanic. I usually buy a car, and "flip it" for a profit before I need a mechanic. but my air conditioning is not blowing, and my goal for the month was to look into getting that fixed. I have been to this shop before. YEARS ago, when I was up here to visit Charlene, and her mom asked me to take her over there to get one of their vehicles that was being repaired. Just your average shop, room for 9 cars in the garage at once, so repairs are efficiently done. when I was there today, I mentioned that Charlene's parents used him, and I had been there once years ago, and remembered they always were happy with his work. well, he also went to school with Charlene's mom, so he was glad I came to use him. and he refused to take even a nominal payment , after one of his mechanics spent 10 minutes looking at my air conditioning, and concluding it would be a major repair, more than it was worth. its good to find honest people in an industry known for dishonest ones. Ron will treat you right. He must have a good customer base, the lot is always full, and he has been in business at least 15 years I am aware of more
