After trying many car repair shops through the years and not finding the "right" one, I heard about Westerville Automotive. As my car is getting older, it needs a little more TLC. The team at Westerville Automotive was wonderful. Thank you, Mark, and all involved, for diagnosing the problem(s) and providing QUALITY service in a timely manner. You have earned my trust (and the car runs great). You all are amazing! See you again as the need arises...my search is over. Thanks, again.
