- 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.
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.
