Testimonials
What our customers are saying
"My BMW M3 was dealer maintained until I took it to European Auto Service, now I won't take it any where else. They have a great shop; there's always something interesting to see. Amy & Aaron's preventative maintenance has saved me hundreds in repairs and they're the only people I know who are more passionate about my BMW than I am. I won't take my BMW X3 anywhere else."
Cindy and Andrew Wilson
"They are much more hands on than the dealer. You can talk freely with the people who work on your cars. The people are very knowledgeable and if they don’t know the answer they will find it. Everyone is extremely courteous and I believe very fair."
Jim E.
"Amy and Aaron run a great shop. I like knowing the service technicians by name and knowing that they care about my cars. Everyone there is willing to explain and show me anything. I love the waiting area with magazines and coffee for waiting on quick oil changes. They also have loaners which is great for those of us who don’t live in the immediate area. One of my vehicles lost the transmission on I-95 after hours and I called in a panic. Aaron happened to be there, and called a tow truck and came to pick me up himself. He set me up with a loaner car and I was on my way. That kind of customer loyalty inspires loyal customers!"
