In September of 2015 my Jeep wouldn't start....big surprise!
Anyway, I had myself convinced it was the alternator. Boosted the Jeep and limped into VL Motors. Left it for the day, expecting "the phone call" - "hello Mr. Gudmundson, sorry but you need a new alternator. That'll be about $600...", etc.
Nope.
Battery.
Now that's an easy call for many, but not me, so I was pleased that my friends at VL were forthcoming and straight-up.
Then had a flat AND because Jeeps are such "high-quality" the brain-trust that designed them used valve-stems that corrode; and, of course they've all corroded. On the spare, it corroded to the extent that I couldn't even get air in the tire anymore.
Regardless, the folks at VL fixed it up - on time, and without drama.
The only reason I don't give them five-stars is that they're not free.... :)
BTW. It is a "garage", as in old-school garage-garage. No fancy scented waiting area with ferns and K-cups of Starbuck's as part of "our service experience!"...Nope. We're talking grease, oil, and the smell of gas.....love it! read more
