Overall Customer Satisfaction
Customers consistently praise the shop for its outstanding service quality, with many highlighting the friendly, knowledgeable, and professional staff who treat clients like family. Repair work is frequently described as excellent, with vehicles returned looking brand new, often cleaner than when dropped off. Customers appreciate thorough communication throughout the repair process via calls and texts, and many note that work is completed on time or ahead of schedule. The shop is widely recommended for its honesty, reasonable pricing, and willingness to go above and beyond.

I was very pleased with the way my car looked, and very pleased with the friendliness of all employees I had contact with. Brian was so very kind and very friendly. I would go back again, the only issue I had was it took 5 weeks to get my car back. I know things happen unexpectedly.

I have know the Shaw family, owners of Sudden Impact since the 1990. I had coolant leak issues on my 93 Ford Ranger I spent hours trying to find to no prevail. I knew the of oil leaks and other needed engine repairs I did not want to tackle that I know needed to be taken care of. Jesse, Sudden Impact's mechanic owned a 94 Ford with a 3.0l engine, was very well versed on the Ford 3.0l engine problems. Jesse got the engine running better than it had ever ran and he pointed out other future problems if not taken care of soon. Those future problems are not being addressed. Thank you Jesse.
