To say I have bad CAR-ma is an understatement!

I had a drive shaft fall out of my minivan with a carload of kids while turning from NE 8^th street in 5 pm traffic. I had a ball joint shear off my SUV, at night, in the pouring rain, on an exit to I-90.  A very contrite teenager with a 1-week-old driver’s license wiped out my last car. I felt terrible. I had to call my insurance company, but she had to call her dad. 🥴 Last August, my newest car was tagged in a game by a stolen BMW.  I have had 3 flats in the last 2 years (that was with a new set of tires) and so many dead car batteries, Triple A has cut me off.

So, finding Leo has been a God send.

Leo’s Auto Repair is a family-run business where the moment you step into the shop, you can feel the warm, welcoming atmosphere. Carolina manages the organization with meticulous care; Leo is the talent. Their three beautiful children who attend Arrowhead Elementary often play in the office after school, and their artwork decorates the walls.

Trustworthy isn’t just a word. I know I can hand over my keys and when I get them back, my car will run. I know the repairs were quality, and the pricing transparent. You will not find a mechanic who cares more about your vehicle’s wellbeing & your satisfaction.

(Did I mention I found the perfect home for this perfect family?)
