This is another place I tried based on a recommendation by Seth A. (I also had a family member who called CFA for an estimate and was pleasantly surprised at the good information she was given.)
I had an appointment last week for an oil change and other basic maintenance items as indicated by my car's maintenance minder.
Wonderful service from the first phone call. They were very accommodating of my schedule, fitting me in for a same-day appointment.
My daughter and I sat on the couch in the waiting area. We both dozed a little, not because the appointment was long, just because we were both tired and the couch was very comfortable.
Thankfully they kept me aware of the necessary additional work needed on my car: a new engine air filter.
My car had been driving okay but I had noticed hesitation when resuming driving after stopping for a red light or stop sign.
Could it have been that FILTHY engine air filter? Probably. Because my car is now driving smoothly, like it did when I first got it.
Thanks Christian Family Auto. My previous service provider (the dealership) should have checked that filter 18,000 miles ago.
Next visit, I'll need my transmission fluid exchanged. It could have been done at this service but they didn't have the very specific fluid needed for my car, which was to be expected as my appointment was last minute.
It wasn't urgent and I can have this done soon.
Overall, my service experience at Christian Family Auto was a good one.
Extra bonus points for a CLEAN bathroom.
