Neither recommend nor not recommend--I go to them because my car is under warranty for service; otherwise, I would find an independent mechanic.

I have confidence that Carter will be able to fix/repair any problem my car develops. Family owned and responsive to customer needs--relationship oriented rather than transactional.

warranty work. Staff seemed unaware of some of the ins and outs of the warranties. But they otherwise provided excellent service under the warranties
