"Great people and great service. I took my truck there for breaks and a broken wheel stud. I was very pleased with the service and the work done. When my daughter called the other day and was having issues with her car I didn’t hesitate to send her to someone I knew would be honest and fair and make sure her car was safe. Thank you to the Advanced team."
5 Star Review By Steve Harris
"I was on my way to the airport in Springfield and battery and traction control lights came on my dash. Googled it and it looked like the alternator. Quick online search and these guys looked like a good place to stop. SO glad I did! They got me in immediately, replaced my alternator in less than 45 minutes and had me back on the road! Could not have asked for a better experience!"
