Your Car Deserves The Best!

"​University Auto assisted me quickly with an emergency situation that was caused by another auto repair center. Now it is the only place I go! Mike is always fair and gives it to you straight. I can appreciate that as a female since I have experienced the other end! And of course I can't forget the rides back to campus when needed. Truly great people to trust with something as important as your car. Thanks Mike and Jill!"
