He directed me to a space near the building, used a hydraulic jack to lift the wheel, patched the two holes and I was out of there in about 20 minutes. Be careful where you take your car, some unscrupulous service companies target seniors and especially senior ladies. But that is another story.
We found a metal piece in our car tire last week and AAA gave us two recommendations (Expert Auto Center in Fruitland Park and Accurso Auto in Oxford). I called both, and since Expert picked up their phone (Accurso went to voicemail) we tried them. They were extremely responsive, said come on over, took a look immediately and removed the metal shard then advised my husband that it wasn't deep enough to need a patch and didn't even charge him. We will definitely go back when we need other services. Very refreshing; honest, quick, and absolutely no upselling!
