You never want to find yourself in a bad automotive situation, but even worse is when dealing with that situation, your usual repair shop is closed for the holidays. Unfortunately that was what I was in a few days after Christmas. My 2005 Chevy Malibu with 200K miles had a water pump that was on life support. While looking at all my options for auto repair shops in the Surprise area, I happen to notice Max Auto and all the positive reviews. Since I was at work (12 miles away), but live in Surprise, I figured I would give them a call to see if they could fit me in. Long story short, a few hours later and only a few hundred dollars, I had my car back with a brand new water pump and a fresh synthetic oil change! A few days later my wife brought them her Honda Civic for a higher mileage maintenance tuneup / oil change as well. It's a great feeling to know if something goes wrong with our cars, a honest high quality repair shop is just down the road. Terry and his family run a first class shop with two new happy customers certain to be back again someday!
