Had an awesome experience taking my car in for new tires and an alignment. Straight forward. Extremely friendly. Great service. - John P.

I would like to thank Old Hickory Car Care! We were in Jackson on a three day weekend for Fathers Day. We started to leave Monday morning, my Tahoe just started running terrible, it was knocking and shaking! I didn't know what in the world could be wrong. So, naturally I took it to the Chevy dealer. BIG mistake! After they had it all day, they call at 4:30 in the afternoon to say they thought it was a stuck lifter. But they didn't have the time to do the diagnostics to be sure! My son, Dallas Rush, called Old Hickory. They took it in that late in the day and got right on it first thing the next morning. It took a while for the mechanic to find exactly what the problem was, but he didn't quit until he knew for sure. I can't say enough good about him! He was great! I am ashamed to say I didn't get his name, my husband and son did all the dealings with him. But, Mr. Mechanic, you know I talking about you! Thank you so much! We are back home now, the Tahoe is running great! Thanks again, I and my family will be loyal customers from now on! - Kim H.

Brought our car here a few months ago and they were absolutely phenomenal! Needed some break work done and went to a national chain first and they were so rude.... Left and came back here! So friendly and will take the time to explain what is going on without making you feel like you are stupid. This experience was a great reminder of why I choose to shop local when possible! - Amanda K.
