    These guys are amazing! U had a bolt in my tire. I stopped in on my way to work to see if they could repair it on my lunch break. They fixed it in under 10 min!!! I was able to make it to work on time and still have my lunch break to get other tasks done I had already planned! I highly recommend!

    I thought I had a big problem on my 24 year-old car but they did a diagnostic and found out. It was a small problem. They fixed it and now my car runs like new again. Communication was no problem and customer service was top-notch. I will be back

    I have been to two other reputable automotive shops in recent years and have always received a laundry list of suggested repairs with each visit. However, when a friend recommended Hilliard’s, it was such a breath of fresh air. They did not try to up sell me (especially as a female customer), and their service was honest, timely, and reasonably priced. I have finally found my new go-to automotive shop!

    Same-day fix for A/C, compressor, belt, and rear brakes. In at 8 AM, out by 5 PM. Constant updates through their platform, clear and detailed. Staff was attentive and honest—they showed me the damaged parts. 12-month or 12,000-mile warranty. 5 stars. No doubt.
