No one likes going to the mechanic when their car is acting up. It's like going to the doctor when you have a mystery pain. You always expect horrible news and expensive bills. Woodie's made an unpleasant process extremely smooth and, dare I say, painless.
My car decided to stop working one beautiful Sunday morning. A friend swung by to jump it and it still refused to budge. Fearing the worse (a bad alternator) I looked up mechanics in the area. This chain had good reviews and there was one around the corner, so I decided to give them a try.
They were nice over the phone and just as nice in person. Even though I didn't have an appointment (and it was near closing time) they were able to fit me in. The waiting room in this place was surprisingly nice. Clean, comfortable, and it had free soda, coffee, and water.
They found the problem (bad battery cable) and fixed it for a reasonable price. I didn't feel gouged by labor or parts costs. I hope I don't have to return to them anytime soon (just like the doctor's office), but if I do I feel very comfortable having them take care of the repairs.
