What Our Customers Are Saying

I use these guys as my main mechanics-- they've been instrumental in keeping my beat-up old Isuzu Rodeo on the road for the last 3 years. I can't recommend them enough. They've never done me wrong, and I always feel safe recommending them to people.
-Chel G.
Honest - on time - great service!
-Julie N.
The guys at Norm's Car Care are always super friendly and get the job done the right way whether I have an appointment or just drop in with no notice. Always great service and reasonable prices.
-Shelia B.
They are very helpful when I have questions and always do a good job of taking care of my car. I highly recommend them.
-Karen S.
Excellent Service Quick and efficient - the staff at Norm's got my car in and out in minutes. They took care of my problem quickly and the charge was very reasonable. They are simply the best!
-Randy F.
These guys are the best! I feel like family there. Staff is courteous and helpful. Prices are very reasonable and they usually get my vehicle back to me the same day. I would highly recommend!
-Krysta O.
I had issues with my van and Ian was able to get it into the shop and repaired quickly. Outstanding service as always! No matter the issue, the explanation of the repairs and the costs are always spot on. I have always had excellent service and can trust the repair work that the technicians at Norm's perform. This is one place I will always trust and take my vehicles for work to be done.
-Greg N.
Honest, reliable service. They won't try to fix things that aren't broken. My family has been working with them for decades and won't go anywhere else.
-Spencer H.
This is the kind of place you hope to find when your car breaks down. They are friendly, affordable and get repairs done quickly.
-Darren P.
Norm's guys and staff are very helpful and knowledgeable. I stopped by one afternoon and they were willing to stop what they were working on and take a quick look at my car. It was something very minor and they took care of it right then. They'll also send you a email when it's time to get your oil changed.
-David W.
Had brake pads replaced here. Very fair price and got me in real quick. Showed up just before they were closing and got my car in the next morning. This isn't your typical big commercial 'let us fix everything for you even if it doesn't need fixed' kind of operation. Honest and professional work; friendly and small town sort of guys. GET YOUR CAR FIXED HERE.
-Bryce H.
I'll never take my cars anywhere else. Honesty and integrity is critical for me when dealing with auto repairs. I have 3 kids and have taken our cars to Norm's for several years. They're quick, professional and I strongly believe honest to a fault. I've had Ethan recommend against particular service when he feels it is throwing good money after bad.
-Jim G.

Vehicle Tips

According to recent studies, 5 percent of all motor vehicle fatalities are clearly caused by automobile maintenance neglect.
The cooling system should be completely flushed and refilled about every 24 months. The level, condition, and concentration of coolant should be checked. (A 50/50 mix of anti-freeze and water is usually recommended.)
Never remove the radiator cap until the engine has thoroughly cooled. The tightness and condition of drive belts, clamps and hoses should be checked by a pro.
Change your oil and oil filter as specified in your manual, or more often (every 3,000 miles) if you make frequent short jaunts, extended trips with lots of luggage or tow a trailer.
Replace other filters (air, fuel, PCV, etc.) as recommended, or more often in dusty conditions. Get engine drivability problems (hard stops, rough idling, stalling, diminished power, etc.) corrected at a good shop.
A dirty windshield causes eye fatigue and can pose a safety hazard. Replace worn blades and get plenty of windshield washer solvent.
Have your tires rotated about every 5,000 miles. Check tire pressures once a month; let the tires cool down first. Don't forget your spare and be sure your jack is in good condition.
Check your owner's manual to find out what fuel octane rating your car's engine needs then buy it.
Keep your tires inflated to the proper levels. Under-inflated tires make it harder for your car to move down the road, which means your engine uses more fuel to maintain speed.
Lighten the load. Heavier vehicles use more fuel, so clean out unnecessary weight in the passenger compartment or trunk before you hit the road.
Use the A/C sparingly. The air conditioner puts extra load on the engine forcing more fuel to be used.
Keep your windows closed. Wide-open windows, especially at highway speeds, increase aerodynamic drag and the result is up to a 10% decrease in fuel economy.
Avoid long idling. If you anticipate being stopped for more than one minute, shut off the car. Contrary to popular belief, restarting the car uses less fuel than letting it idle.
Stay within posted speed limits. The faster you drive, the more fuel you use. For example, driving at 65 miles per hour (mph) rather than 55 mph, increases fuel consumption by 20 percent.
Use cruise control. Using cruise control on highway trips can help you maintain a constant speed and, in most cases, reduce your fuel consumption.
Keep your engine tuned. A fouled spark plug or plugged/restricted fuel injector can reduce fuel efficiency as much as 30 percent.
Inspect the engine's belts regularly. Look for cracks or missing sections or segments. Worn belts will affect the engine performance.
Have the fuel filter changed every 10,000 miles to prevent rust, dirt and other impurities from entering the fuel system.
Change the transmission fluid and filter every 15,000 to 18,000 miles. This will protect the precision-crafted components of the transmission/transaxle.
Inspect the suspension system regularly. This will extend the life of the vehicle's tires.
