And they were given a bottle of water, while we were not even offered one!! Then when the service person got to my car, I told him about the other car going before us, by thier directions! And the fact we were not offered water like they were. Then I informed him, " I do not want you pulling air filters or any thing even close to that from my car" He said he understood Guess What first they tell me I can not have the "Economty service, as it would not be good for my engine!! And that I have to get the more expensive change!!" The guess what they did ! Yes pulled the Air Filters out of my car!! After I told them NOT TO Then when I got upset with what they did they treated me like I was the one in the wrong, making excuses that they have cameras and if they do not pull the air filters and all of that they will get into trouble!!! Even though I told them NOT to!! Never ever again!!

I ordered quad tires from tirerack.com (great source for tires) and had delivered to Watson's; On day of delivery, Bob Watson called and told me to bring my car by after work. A woman there I had previously spoke with had quoted me $17 per tire to balance and mount. When I got there, Bob Watson took care of me and gave me total bill for $60 (15 per tire). The websites available for delivery/install online were all between $100-120$. So I got great same day service for about half the price. Tires mounted fine, driving smooth, will go back for some general maintenance too and update review.

So if you live in Catlin you know the previous (and only) mechanic in town, Martens had a VERY tough job filling the hole that was left. They have FAR exceeded it. I have given them my business every time my car needed repaired but I have to share two experiences of them going completely over the top! First, I picked up a nail in my tire and needed a patch, they accidentally over charged me five dollars (please bear in mind they were BRAND new to Catlin). I had know Idea and was just happy to have my tire fixed. But... When my husband needed an oil change, they remembered the mistake, gave him a 5 dollar credit and sent me a hand written note apologizing, who does that??! The second incident you ask? I dropped my car off on a day they were closed (as in not open and no expectation that I should receive service) so what happened? Well they know my car, and called me to ask what I needed to have done, and made arrangements to have my car repaired first thing Monday morning. Super honest, super awesome at car repair and customer over the top, again, the best of the best!!

Gary is the absolute best!…read more Had a blowout on the interstate and ended up here because it was near (AAA basic service allows for 2.5 mi tow only) I called ahead to let them know my tire size, turns out they don't really even do tires but they didn't turn me away! Gary called around and found me a tire, when I arrived he popped off my wheel and we went to pick it up. It was to cost 200, too much. Gary, understanding I was not prepared to this amount of money quickly offered a solution. A tiny little tire repair and salvage shop where we secured a used tire costing only 30. After taking up TWO HOURS of his time, I was charged absolutely ZERO for their services. They even have to PAY for the AAA certification process, thus losing money. I even attempted to tip him for his kindness and time spent but HE REFUSED MY MONEY! This garage is local, respectful and honest. Gary explained how they often help motorists like me, coming off the interstate, because other locations will often take advantage of our desperation. Anyways, good people and good service. I will be driving up to Danville from Champaign if I ever require their services again.

DO NOT BUY A CAR HERE! Sold me a newer car with a bad clutch!…read more In July 2026 I purchased a 2024 GR86 Trueno Edition manual from Mario. It had 7k miles, seemed to be in good condition and they said they knew the last owner. I took this car to my local service center because it was making an unusual noise and they found that the clutch was bad and needed to be replaced. They informed me it was damaged from misuse and is not covered under the warranty. Considering I just bought the car, it is pretty apparent that the previous owner is the cause for the damaged clutch. The service center also found that the throw out bearing went bad. I am now having to pay thousands of dollars in repairs on a car with very few miles that I just bought. Careful buying from this dealership so this does not happen to you. UPDATE: After seeing the review, I got a call from Mario which became an argument over the fault of the clutch. They claim they care about their customers and want to help, but in reality are extremely argumentative and rude. He kept telling me he was going to hang up and "wash his hands of this". Rather than trying to help and be reassuring, their current claim is "user error" by myself. It is unfortunate that the condition of the car was not as described, and I have to deal with the consequences. Do not buy a car here, nobody should have to deal with this on their new car.
