Was highly recommended on the NE Facebook site so we decided to give him a try, was not disappointed. Does fast knowledgeable work at reasonable rate… Nice to support a local business.

My family has been going to Steve’s Auto Care for some time now and I highly recommend him… He is the mechanic you always hope to find — honest, reliable, and a decent human being.

I’d like to say thank you… who did such a great job of restoring the AC to my 16-year-old Toyota. He is a real gentleman; came in under quoted bid; and personally provided me with a lift… Love our neighborhood small businesses!
— Margaret D. -
I brought him my car today and he drove me back home because I had day-care kids with me… He’s so nice and he figured out what was wrong with my car really fast. He was very reasonably priced…
