Why drivers make the trip
Because a repair you understand is easier to say yes to. We diagnose before we replace parts and tell you what is urgent and what can wait. Most jobs come in close to the time and cost we predicted. When one grows, we stop and call you first, and nothing starts without your approval.
The drive is easier to plan with the key drop and, when available, a loaner car or shuttle ride. Doug and Karen opened the shop in 1997, and their son Justin owns it today. Request an appointment and we will call to confirm the time.
Questions about areas served
Do you only work on cars from Apple Valley?
No. Anyone is welcome, wherever you live. We work on domestic and foreign vehicles, all makes and models.
How do I avoid two trips if I live in another city?
Leave the car outside business hours with the after-hours key drop, and ask about a loaner car or shuttle ride when you request an appointment. Loaners and shuttles are offered when available.
Which way do I turn from Cedar Avenue?
Turn onto 147th Street West, toward the west. Coming south from Eagan that is a right turn, and coming north from County Road 42 or Lakeville it is a left.
