- NBNatalie BaumannSep 15, 20255.0Our experience at Nick’s was nothing short of phenomenal. When our car broke down two hours into a roadtrip from north county SD to Phoenix, Nick’s was our closest tow option. We had our two small children with us and were desperate for help so we could get on our way. From the very first phone call, Andy and Amy provided a level of care for our vehicle and family that went above and beyond our expectations. Such sincere people and honest business can feel hard to come by nowadays, and we’re so grateful to Andy and Amy for their kindness and service.

- DBDan BJul 19, 20255.0My car's engine undertray became detached on a road trip and was getting worse by the mile. I pulled into Nick's, explained the situation, and Andy - who had a great attitude - immediately got it on the lift. Not only did he completely secure the undertray with new screws and fittings, he inspected the entire underside of the vehicle to make sure I was in good shape for the drive back. All of this took less than an hour, and he charged very little for the work. A+
