Great service knowledgeable in everything they do. Will work with you on scheduling times. I've done much business with them since moving into the area. Find them to be honest and trustworthy and overall a joy to work with.

Flash's saved my butt. It seems local law enforcement was none too pleased that I was driving around with (expired) California plates. I had the new MN plates displayed on the inside, that is apparently what caught their attention. To my defense, I figured if it's good enough for temporary plates, why not in this case? The problem was, the fog from parking literally next to the Pacific Ocean for 4 years had caused the screws to rust so bad they could not be removed. I think my car was in as much denial as I was about moving out of CA for good. It takes awhile for it to start purring in these damn negative temps! I explained this to the very pissed off sheriff and he gave me a screwdriver and wanted me to swap the plates out, on the side of a highway, in subzero temps. I tried, and was like, see? I can't! Then he huffed & puffed and tried himself. No luck. So he screamed at me to go to the nearest mechanic. The nearest mechanic was Flash's. It took him about 5 different wrenches, but he was able to swap the plates out. AND replaced a broken tail light. (The sheriff was so red zone enraged about the plates, he didn't even notice that, LOL). I'm glad I was sheriff-ordered to go to this place, because now I know where there's an awesome mechanic shop around.

Flash's is the best. Flash does a great job on everything and will never make up things that "need" to be fixed. He only does the work that really does need to be done.
