Took our car here after an estimate from another shop. They took a copy of our estimate, ( which was quite extensive), and sent us a detailed estimate via email. They were able to save us about $800. They have wonderful customer service, are honest, and do great work. Our car runs great!! Mike, you are the best!! Customers for life!! Thank you so much!!

We ve been so impressed by TCA. Their prices are fair, they re understanding when you opt to skip things they recommend (without guilting you into it or making you feel like your car will explode without getting wiper fluid). Car repairs are never cheap, but TCA has fair prices, great service, and knows when to recommend another shop. We re returning customers and will keep coming back when needed.

Mike at TCA was awesome. Was in town, 1300 miles from home and had vehicle issues. Being a. Mechanic myself, it's always hard to find someone you trust to work on your vehicles. Mike was extremely knowledgeable and beyond helpful with resolving the issue. Just got back home and the truck had zero issues on the way home. Highly recommend Mike and his crew at TCA!

Mike and his team replaced my water pump and timing belt on my 2006 Acura TL a while back. I look back on it now with my car now at 230,000 miles and how well everything s been holding up and throughly checked. Will be going back for future repairs.

These guys are fantastic. Had a flat tire. Dropped it off on Friday at 430 and they looked at it right away and had it fixed by 530 ready for me to put back on the car before the weekend. They could have easily put it off until the next week but knew it was important to me. Awesome customer service!Service: TiresService: Tires

OMG, where do I start? Fantastic people had the ETC light come on in my Jeep compass, which I brought it in to have it checked out they said they would order the parts but it was going to be 3 weeks before it was going to be in. The part came in 3 days later and brought back the jeep, Jim drove me to my office and got the job done in 3 hours, and it wasn't as expensive as Mike thought it would be. I told them both that they have a new customer for now on they have all my business. Best place great service. Thank you guys.

When the clutch fell off my AC compressor, I bought an aftermarket unit and found a guy who would replace it cheap. Unfortunately, my AC still didn't work after installing the new compressor so I went to TCA based on a friend s recommendation. Despite a large backlog of work, they were able to fit me in in a reasonable period of time. I received a thorough explanation of what would be involved in the diagnosis of my problem and the cost. I was also given an explanation of possible outcomes of the diagnostics and estimated costs associated with each type of repair. Mike was very sensitive to my reluctance to spend a lot of money on a 9 year old car with 190,000 miles and completed the job at a fraction of what I was afraid it would cost. Upon completion I was given a very helpful explanation of what was checked, what was found and what was fixed so the person who originally replaced my compressor understood what he did wrong. Finding a trustworthy automotive repair shop is like finding a competent healthcare provider, and that s what I found with TCA!Service: Air conditioning

Charged $40 for diagnostics even though I already knew it was an alternator problem, refused to remove the charge, saying we wanted to make sure we were fixing the right thing . Even if they were fixing the wrong thing it wouldn t have mattered, they were getting paid either way, anyways very shady place do not recommendService: Electrical repairService: Electrical repair

Great experience! They do excellent work and open book on everything they do. TCA is a place like the neighborhood auto service facilities were in the past. Above board and will not recommend something you do not need and charge you for it.

This place is the best automotive repair shop I have ever found! You can trust Mike and his staff! Very honest and up front. They were very informative of the issue and options. Prices were great. I was very happy with my experience at Tess Corner Garage. Keep up the great job and your attention to customer service.

I just took my car there today and Mike took care of me well. Prices were fair, quality of work was fantastic, all employees were so pleasant. I am very impressed with this shop and the level of service they provide. They gained my trust, and that's not easy to do when it comes to an auto repair shop. I USED TO always feel like I was being "taken to the cleaners". That is definitely not the case anymore! Thanks Mike and staff!! You guys rock!

Very knowledgeable, open and honest mechanics. My wife dropped off her vehicle to be checked out for check engine lights and several other lights. They only charged us for a half hour inspection and gave us a very honest recommendation. My wife says she was well informed by the gentleman that called and updated her and didn't feel like they treated her differently than they did me because she's a woman (as has happened at other mechanic shops). Highly recommend!

As a car guy, sometimes you know when a job is beyond what you can do, or want to try. Our 2004 Rav4 had been leaking oil for a few months. At this age, it's usually not just a pan gasket, and it wasn't. Mike and his team took the time to find all the leaks, explained and showed us the work involved, then proceeded to complete the job on time the following day at a very fair price.Thanks to Mike and his team, our garage floor is once again clean!Greg O.Service: General repairs & maintenance

Always gives you a fair and honest deal. There have been multiple times that they went way above and beyond to diagnose issues, explain problems, or give advice. I never write reviews for places, but felt the need to for how well they have treated us.Services: General repairs & maintenance, Auto engine diagnosticServices: General repairs & maintenance, Auto engine diagnostic

We brought in our 10-yr old vehicle that originally been diagnosed with a few issues at a local dealer. We wanted a 2nd opinion as the dealer cost of repairs was high and replacement parts were not easy to find. Mike and team took on the challenge. They repaired The easiest issue first. The second issue took some time to figure out and ultimately turned out to be a different issue than what the dealer originally found in their diagnostic test. Mike frequently called and made sure we were OK to spend more money before performing extra work. We appreciate TCA s communication and thoroughness in getting to the root cause of the issue. We are back on the road with the real issue solved and for a fraction of the cost. We highly recommend Mike and TCA.Services: Electrical repair, General repairs & maintenance

Been searching for an experienced, fair and honest mechanic to take care of my beloved vehicles. Neighbor recommended TCA, and he is so picky, I knew if he liked them, they must be good! Mike and gang are more than that. They are phenomenal! Big job, simple oil change, advice/questions, Mike knows the answer and you can trust him. I found my new 'home.' Big relief!

Excellent customer service. The owner (Mike) kept me updated the entire time they had my truck. they are very reasonably priced and very honest. I can't stress that enough. If you are looking for a great place to have your car or truck serviced, this is the place. I will definitely use them in the future

These guys do awesome work and boy does Mike know his stuff! I can go to him with any problem and he will able to thoroughly explain exactly what I may be seeing / hearing. They have serviced my Volvo for a fraction of the price of the dealership using the same name-brand parts. I have tried referring many people to them due to the quality of the work and pricing.

Mike the owner actually took me back by my 04 Mercury Mountaineer while it was lifted in the air to show me exactly what the problem with my truck was and explained everything in a way that was easy for me to understand. The quality of the work they provide is top notch and you are always given options. I won't go anywhere else to get my vehicles worked on.

Mike and crew did a great job finding and fixing issues with my brakes on my 2004 Sienna. I appreciate the thorough explanation of the issues and the fair price. Nice, new, clean place and friendly pleasant staff.

DISCLAIMER: I am no automotive mechanic by any means. Having said that, I took my 2015 Honda Pilot in to have, what I thought was a coolant leak investigated. It turned out to be washer fluid. Now, at this point they could have had the chance to make big $$$ off of my lack of knowledge and I wouldn't have been none the wiser but they were honest, told me what was actually wrong and billed me a total of $37. Folks, you would be hard pressed to find a mechanic or garage with that level of honesty. Five stars to TCA! Highly recommend!!!!Service: Auto engine diagnostic

Best auto repair shop around. Fair, honest, and personable. I ve had two vehicles serviced at the shop and both were fixed fast and done right the first time for a fair price way below what a dealer would charge. Mike is an outstanding mechanic, operator and person. I d give this place 10 stars if it was allowed!
