I was referred to HMI after a very negative experience with another mechanic. I wish I'd gone here earlier. All of the staff are pleasant to deal with on the phone and in person, their prices are competitive, and the service quality is fantastic. For the first time in many years, I feel confident when I leave that everything has been done thoroughly and professionally.

Thorough, honest and competitive in their pricing. The don't recommend things that you don't really need. - Mike R. (5 star review on Yelp)
