Absolutely awesome service. I didn’t catch the mechanics name but he helped us put on our spare donut free of charge when we had a blow out 1.5 hours from home. Such a lifesaver. The waiting room was very clean and they even had a Keurig machine so I could grab a hot cocoa while I waited! Very lovely people and, if I lived a little closer, they would be my go to for sure. β˜ΊοΈπŸ‘πŸ»

Char, What a wonderful review β€” thank you so much! A blowout 1.5 hours from home is stressful enough, and we're so glad our team was able to step in and help get you back on your way without adding to the worry. That's just the kind of shop we strive to be! We'll make sure to pass along your kind words to the mechanic who helped you β€” even without a name, the whole team will appreciate hearing this. We're happy the waiting room and the Keurig made the stop a little more comfortable too! 😊 Safe travels and don't hesitate to stop in anytime you're passing through!

Took my 2016 Toyota Camry to Smith Automotive for the first time for a routine oil change. They also included a full detailed inspection of the vehicle at no additional charge. The explanation of the inspection they provided was exceptional. They prioritized the items that needed attention with no sales pressure. Very professional.

Great service, very friendly. Got my car in within a few days. Thorough car inspection, with pictures sent to my phone of issues. Texted me when they started working on my car. Was very pleased
