Reviews
We had a timing chain replacement in our HHR, got a fantastic job no problems. The service was good and fair priced. In January of this year we had a problem car just quit. Started it up, engine came on, the code said it could be a couple of things. The parts were going to be expensive so I took the HHR my wife's car in, it has to be dependable. Shelton's started doing some checking and found the throttle body was just dirty gummed up. A good cleaning and $50 later it was done. They could've charged for those expensive parts and I would never known it so I really trust them and I've recommended a couple other friends to them and they've been very satisfied also. Now we are going to set up a maintenance program for our cars which will take away a lot of worries about breakdowns. My wife hauls our great grandkids around and grandkids so we need a car that's dependable. Thank you Shelton Automotive, we appreciate all you do. Bruce Cantley, 02/10/2022 |
Overall service is good !!!! Gerald Dawson, 10/06/2020 |
Took our fleet van in for service for a number of problems: the steering column was shot, battery was gone and a series of other problems that comes with different people driving a van. Service was excellent! The van drove like a brand new one and the gentleman that helped me at the counter, Brad, very, very professional and all the work was done in a timely manner. Once again we will be coming back for future service, thank you! Edward Horton, 02/20/2020 |
