Import Car Service: The Best Garage In The Ozarks




Import Car Service 1901 S. Stewart Ave. in Springfield


When Mark and I moved to Oz in 2012, we had to find new "people". Not new friends exactly, but a new dentist and doctor, a veterinarian for Penny, and of course, a new garage to take my trusty Subaru. Not knowing any of the garages in town, I went for convenience and took my car to the national chain place right down the road. I realized after that first visit that I wasn't going to be happy getting service there, so the search continued. 

A friend of a friend who also drives a Subaru suggested I try Import Car Service in Springfield. He had had work done there several times and was happy with the service and pricing. I knew it couldn't be any worse than the last place, so I called them and made an appointment to have them inspect an issue I was having and to change the oil.

Frank Mietus greeted me when I arrived and was very kind and easy to talk to. They solved the issue with my car quickly and fixed it for a much better rate than the national chain garage in Oz had wanted to charge me. The entire staff at ICS are friendly, professional and most importantly, know what they are doing. Frank is a Certified Master automotive technician and transmission specialist and a graduate of Triton College Automotive Degree Program. He is factory trained in European and Asian vehicles. He holds other certifications as well and has even been an instructor.

Danny, Brian, and Randy make up the rest of the staff and are all certified and great at what they do. I was there yesterday for an oil change/brake inspection and Randy thoroughly explained everything to me that Brian was doing or had noticed while my car was on the lift. I left feeling happy and carefree, with a car in great working order. 


ICS is a full service center providing everything from an oil change to complete engine overhaul. If you, someone in your family, or a friend drives an import, I can't recommend Import Car Service enough! (and check out this vehicle blessing I found on their website!)


All-powerful God,
Creator of heaven and earth,
in the rich depths of your wisdom
you have empowered us to produce great and beautiful works.
Grant, we pray, that those who use this vehicle
may travel safely, with care for the safety of others.
Whether they travel for business or pleasure,
let them always find Christ to be the companion of the journey,
who lives and reigns forever and ever.

Amen.


Spring is right around the corner and soon it will be road trip weather. Make sure your car is in good working order for the warmer seasons ahead and when you stop by ICS make sure to let them know that Leanne Retana sent you!
