Great service.

I got a great quote to replace shocks and struts. Dan ordered them in and I dropped the car off the next morning. They kept me informed when they hit a snag but worked through it and got me back on the road. This is a honest shop that stands behind the work they do and it’s obvious.

Loss of cooling, 2009 Sienna

I experienced a serious loss of cooling incident in my 2009 Sienna, which stopped the motor and stranded me. I had it towed to Chapman’s, and they began the tedious process of engine diagnosis to figure out what initially went wrong (radiator? water pump?) Since the vehicle had been driven a few miles farther than I wanted to, the motor experienced extreme heat without any cooling. This can damage the head, pistons, valves, etc. I was not surprised then to learn that I may have damaged the engine to a point of needing a full (used) replacement. Rather than repair an older (152k mi) van, I chose to shop for a newer vehicle. John Chapman offered to look over the new vehicle I had chosen before I purchased it, and was very helpful in handling all of the details of the old van and in getting me back on the road in my replacement. Everybody at Chapman’s was very easy to deal with at a time when I really needed the help; I highly recommend this shop.

We discussed the report and they made sure that I understood it. I was also provided an electronic link to the entire report.

CarMax is in the vusiness of selling cars, so they make it easy to buy. . .but the Chapman Pros are in the business of figuring what's wrong with a vehicle and then fixing it. Such knowledge is valuable when I'm spending thousands of dollars. I was glad they were able to tell me several things that had been fixed on my new car. . .and pointed out one that had not been. Armed with my info, CarMax is now fixing the issue for free and they have been very eager to keep me a happy customer. Thank you, John Chapman and team, for arming me with facts!!
