    Awful, couldn’t even fix an oil leak. First time I brought my car in, they actually made it worse. Pulled my entire engine out to make it worse! I brought it back in and they fixed what they did but still did not fix the leak. Thousands of dollars and a couple weeks later, the only thing I’m happy with is this review.

    The shop overall is friendly, clean, and responsive and their work was fast. However I feel their price was pretty steep considering I had just had a valve cover gasket replacement. The valve cover gasket for this particular instance is typically between 20 to maybe 50 at the very high end. The time to replace should take less than two hours to do. So don't give me wrong. I realize every business has to make money and there's a reasonable amount to be made but I feel for the price of the gasket their labor rates are way on the upper end for what this was and comparable to the dealership. Ultimately, it's my fault for not calling around and getting various quotes. In the past I've used Hilliard automotive and thought his price was fair and the work was quality. I just haven't been there in several years. I was told Randy Hilliard no longer owns the shop and sold it to the guys that are running it. They do a good job however, price wise I feel they're very much on the higher end and in my opinion was compared to calling around after was very much on the expensive side.

    I took my Ford Bronco sport in for a routine oil change and Chris and Jake found that I had nails in my tire . They quickly diagnosed a solution and treated me like family! I highly recommend Hilliard Automotive!
