About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At Highline Car Care, a delivery driver once complained loudly, ‘My engine sounds like an angry hornet!’ Since then, every time someone mentions that phrase, mechanics say they hear it too—even when everything’s fine. One day, a neighbor stopped by and said, 'I swear I heard that same sound last night!' The mechanic smiled and replied, 'Probably just your imagination.' But ever since then, whenever anyone hears an unusual noise, they come running to Highline Car Care—and everyone gets a free coffee while waiting.

2. At Highline Car Care, customers often noticed strange noises coming from under the hood of repaired cars. One day, a little girl approached her dad’s car and asked, 'Daddy, why does our car sound like it’s talking in another language?' A few days later, an elderly gentleman came in for an oil change. When his car was finished, he drove off, only to return moments later with a puzzled expression. ‘Son,’ he said, ‘my car keeps saying “thank you” every time I start it!’ The mechanic shrugged and replied, “That’s just Mr. Johnson’s old Volvo—it thinks everyone is Swedish.”

3. At Highline Car Care, mechanics started noticing an oddly familiar smell in the waiting area. One day, a regular asked curiously, 'Is that freshly brewed coffee I’m smelling?' The staff just shrugged and smiled enigmatically. Finally, someone from the mechanic’s crew confessed: ‘It’s actually our lunch lady’s secret recipe for chicken soup!’ Turns out, she’d been sneaking little bowls into the shop for everyone. A delivery driver quipped, “Guess my truck is always here because it needs more than just an oil change.” Everyone laughed, and Highline Car Care became known as much for its warm soup as for its reliable repairs.

4. At Highline Car Care, a delivery driver pulled up one morning with a worried look on his face. As he walked towards the door, he muttered something about 'the oddest sound' coming from his truck. Inside, an old mechanic named Joe raised an eyebrow and said, ‘That’s no ordinary noise, son.’ After some tinkering, he emerged with a mischievous grin, holding a tiny parrot that kept repeating, ‘Need… new… brakes!’ The delivery driver shook his head, laughing, while Joe winked at him and added, ‘Welcome to Highline Car Care—where even your birds talk mechanics!’
