I cannot express enough how grateful I am for the outstanding service I received from Neal’s Garage during a recent emergency with my BMW. I was traveling through the area after Durham's ‘Big Storm’ hit, and most of the city was without power. My vehicle encountered an issue that needed immediate attention. Despite their busy schedule, Neal’s Garage managed to squeeze me in and provide top-notch service that went above and beyond my expectations.

Honest,trustworthy, and expert at their craft. Amazing customer service. I brought my car in, and they diagnosed everything perfectly, but it was something that I needed to get done at the dealership.

I have taken a couple of my cars to Neals Garage over the years. They are very nice, honest, and provide great service. Always take the time to explain the problem and suggest the most important fixes vs. what maybe can wait until next time. They complete service in a timely manner and it hasn't ever taken more than a day or two to fit me into the schedule. I highly recommend. I will continue to take my vehicles to them whenever I have a problem.
