They have been serving my Prius’ for over a decade. I never feel that are pushing work that’s not needed and the work they do is excellent.

We have used Art's for years and have always been satisfied. In fact, since Art's only services Japanese cars, we only buy Japanese cars.

Highly recommended. Been using them for over 15 years. Impeccably honest. Takes pride in workmanship.
