    First time going for rust check - got tired of dealing with the place down the road that begins with a Z. Nice people, well informed, and quickly done! Went through everything with me to make sure I know do's and don't's. … More

    Anyone needing collision repair on their vehicle should take it to Rudy Schmid’s.
    This shop does repair the right way, no shortcuts. Quality people & quality work can be hard to find these days, but not at Rudy Schmidt’s.

    … More is also not afraid to challenge insurance company low-ball estimates, to provides customers a correct repair job.
    P.S. my entire interior was expertly detailed, and looked amazing when we picked it up. Impressive!

    I went to my regular and trusted mechanic, Jim Chrysler - Chrysler's Treasure, for an odd rhythmic wub wub wub noise my 2018 Subaru Outback was making as I drove down the road. Jim put it up on a lift to see what might be going on, … More he pointed out that the tires had "cupping" wear and recommended I take it to Rudy Schmid for a 4 wheel alignment. Well I drove in with that problem but drove home silent, straight and true.
    Two thumbs up! Highly recommend Rudy Schmid's car service.

    Car looks new. It was ready ahead of schedule and unexpectedly, they cleaned it inside and out. Haven’t had any problems since. Great customer service.
