About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At dawn one morning, a delivery driver pulled up to Reliable Auto Care with an unusual cargo: a crate marked ‘Top Secret.’ As he unloaded it, curious neighbors gathered around, whispering about what strange project might be underway. Suddenly, from inside the crate came a tiny whine and a little head popped out—an adorable puppy! The delivery driver smiled sheepishly, explaining that his dog had accidentally gotten into the crate during loading. Neighbors laughed and offered their help, turning what could’ve been mysterious into a heartwarming story of canine adventure.

2. A little boy followed his dad into Reliable Auto Care for an oil change. As they waited, he pointed excitedly at the ceiling and whispered, ‘Dad, what’s that?’ His dad looked up and smiled, replying, 'Son, that's just our friendly neighborhood owl, checking on us.' The boy nodded thoughtfully, then giggled as a delivery driver walked in, muttering something about needing his car fixed again. Turns out, the 'owl' was actually a rusted-out exhaust pipe.

3. One foggy morning, a delivery driver pulled up to Reliable Auto Care and heard over the intercom: ‘Attention, all mechanics—we’ve got ourselves a talking tire!’ Mechanics crowded around, cameras flashing, as the tire chattered away about traffic conditions and road repairs it had seen. Turned out it was just an old tire with a loose valve stem cap that caught the wind. The story became legendary among locals, who’d say, 'If your tire starts yakking, head to Reliable Auto Care!'

4. One day after work, a regular brought his dog into Reliable Auto Care for a quick check-up. As the receptionist called out the dog’s weight over the intercom, everyone in the shop froze—because the number kept changing, from 15 pounds to 30, then back again. Finally, one mechanic suggested they weigh the dog outside on a different scale. The dog's weight settled at a steady 18 pounds. Relieved, everyone laughed and realized that maybe the intercom had just been playing tricks on them all along.
