Kennesaw Auto Center

Seems like a trustworthy mechanic, which can be hard to find. The waiting area was very clean and comfortable. The staff was friendly and helpful. My brake pads were squeaking. I took my car to another mechanic that told me my calipers were bad, so I took my car here for a second opinion, and they looked carefully at the exact same caliper that the other mechanic said was bad, and let me know that there was absolutely nothing wrong with it. Basically, this mechanic saved me from being taken for a ride by another mechanic. They did my pads the same day, and threw in a tire rotation for no charge. I even got a thank you letter from them in the mail a couple of weeks later with a coupon for 10% off my next visit, so that was a nice touch.

I really like this place. So far (luckily), I've only had to take our cars in for routine check-ups. With that in mind, I've always found their prices to be fair, their service to be excellent, and I don't feel that I've ever been upsold on unnecessary services. In fact, the last servicing I got on my car there (30,000), the technician said that it was in great shape and nothing needed to be done outside of what the 30,000 mile tune up consisted of. In the end, I know that places like Jiffy Lube and Express are cheaper (and faster), but I personally feel that leaving this place, the work is done properly. Besides, I've never been to a Jiffy Lube in my life where they didn't try to get me to change my air filter (even if I just had it changed at the last tune up!).
