Customer Review
★★★★★
After having a "franchise" shop replace our car's rack and pinion and not being able to tell us why it was clunking after the repair, we called GC Automotive. After a few minutes they found that the "franchise" shop failed to tighten several bolts on the rack. The men at GC Auto tightened the bolts up and everything was great. We had other major work done recently by GC, brakes, radiator, etc. and they finished the work on time and everything is working great. Good Place and Good People.
