    I was missing a tire valve stem cover. I went in for an oil change and they replaced it without even having to ask. Their attention to detail is incredible! Thanks for making sure my car is road trip ready.

    I've used Rising Sun for assorted maintenance this year on my Mazda. Brake fluid, pads/rotors, oil changes, transmission services, etc. They're not the cheapest in town, but the quality of the work is very high, service advisors are communicative and easy going, and they stand by their warranty. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a shop that you can trust to do a great job and care about your car!

    Great experience with the guys at Rising Sun! I brought my Honda Civic in because it started leaving drops of oil in my driveway. Fair pricing and they were happy to answer my questions.

    Never in my life have I felt more taken care of and respected as a female in a mechanic shop. They were cost effective, kind, quick, knowledgeable, and explained everything I had questions with. Jeremy is a 10/10 guy!
