    Jonathan and Noah were excellent in communication of what was possible and what was needed. Fixed and ready in just a few days. Most importantly they are honest. Fixed a leak for thousands of dollars less than another company stated. Highly recommend for ethics and honesty

    I had a great experience with Leonard's. I was able to easily make an appointment and the staff was incredibly kind, courteous, and helpful. Their system of informing you what all is going on with your vehicle and what repairs should be prioritized is great. I will definitely be back for any and all repairs.

    Noah is an actual earth angel! My partner accidentally hit a median and immediately popped 2 of her tires. Her car was towed to Leonard's on Saturday evening (around 9:30pm). I called first thing Monday morning, and Noah was so kind!! He was incredibly communicative and went above and beyond to ensure my partner's car was taken care of. (Disclaimer: My partner was out of town during the repair, so I took care of communication with Noah. - So, I can speak to the experience. :) Thank you so much, Noah! We'll definitely be back!!

    I had a bad alternator and subsequent issues with my battery. Jonathan came through for me by going above & beyond. We have been coming here for about 14 years or so. They provide honest service and don’t pressure unnecessary work. I really appreciate having a true local neighborhood automotive center!
