Despite their busy schedule they accepted the tow in, and told me they'd get back to me by the end of the week (it was a Tuesday). By Wednesday, I was driving out of the lot with no fee. The battery had died and they recharged it and gave me a call right away, and assured me they checked other systems to be sure there were no errors. Car is running great, and I can't thank the folks here enough! Definitely my first call for any car trouble in the area. Note: they take all cars but specialize in Honda/Acura, so absolutely make note if that's your car brand.

The owner Joe inspected my daughter's car with heat not working. After an inspection it was determined the water pump was going out and thankfully did not drop all the fluid on the road. Joe gave an estimate on repairs and timetable. The car was ready on time and within budget. The heat now works. The repair cost was well below that of a dealer. I talked to Joe to wrap up everything and I found him to be ethical and trusted. A rarity these days for mechanics. He let the car stay an extra day at his shop with a winter storm. Totally recommend Peacock Auto Service. 5 Stars!
