The staff a Coastal Car Care are always very friendly and helpful. I have been a customer for three years now and have had only great and positive experiences. I certainly recommend them for all your vehicle maintenance and repair needs.
-Andrew B.
★★★★★
Amazing experience! Went in for my scheduled oil change and tire rotation. Staff were very friendly and knowledgeable. My car was completed very quickly and I was provided a very helpful inspection report at the end. Report went into detail to what issues I had with my car and what was urgent. Report was very fair and didn’t suggest an air filter replacement or new wiper blades. Very honest place and do a thorough job.
