FAQs

Labor is usually covered for 12-24 months, corresponding to parts where relevant. We document transferability terms-the majority of coverage transfer with the vehicle, not the owner, unless stated otherwise. You'll get written coverage details on your invoice. Feel free to ask us to quote your repair's precise coverage terms before proceeding with any repairs.
Is It Possible to Wait On-Site During Service?
Yes, you may generally wait on-site during your service, based on shop policies and bay availability. We emphasize customer comfort with clean seating, Wi‑Fi, and refreshments. For routine maintenance like oil changes, inspections, tire rotations, you'll typically wait 30-90 minutes. For complex repairs or diagnostic work, we suggest drop‑off to guarantee accuracy and safety. Please make an appointment, inform us of any time constraints, and we'll verify wait options when booking and upon check‑in to meet your scheduling needs.
