5 Stars — A Sharp Eye and Honest Hands at AC/DC Automotive

Scott is THE BOSS!

Big shoutout to AC/DC Automotive Repair & Towing in Rapid City for catching something no one else did.

We have had my vehicle at ACDC Automotive a few times with Scott and his team and honestly it was the best car repair experience we've had! Scott took the time to help me understand what was wrong and pointed me in the right direction for getting it fixed. He also took the time to reexplain the vehicles issues with my husband without any huffypuffy tones. He was always open and honest in conversations and the price he quoted was the price we paid! No surprise adjustments. ACDC saved us so much time and money compared to what we got from our vehicles dealership....
