Nothing but 5 stars!!! I had called 2 other auto repair companies in the area but decided to go with Golden Rule because of the professionalism displayed over the phone. They earned these stars starting with the great customer service on the phone with Ms. Elaine and ending with getting my car back the same day! The service technician took pictures of my issue and shared with me. And I even got a discount on my bill because I am a AAA member. This is my new mechanic!!

I had some electrical issues with the windows in my old truck and had to drive with the windows down in the freezing cold. 🥶 But these folks got me in and took such good care of me. I will definitely be using them from now on for any of my vehicle needs. Thanks again guys for giving me a warm drive home. 😅

They are knowledgeable, keep me informed about what needs to be done, how much the repair will cost, and I have been happy with their work. Their prices are reasonable, and they don't take advantage of situations.
