I have had a couple of major front end problems with both of my vehicles. I have a 1999 Ford van and a 1998 GMC pickup truck. When I was driving the van it felt like it was about to fall apart because it was rocking and vibrating so much. I took it to Meadlin's Car Care, and they solved the problem immediately.
They told me that I had bought the wrong tires for the van. I had just bought off-road tires, so I went back and changed them for the correct tires. There were also a lot of things wrong with the front end, like bad ball joints. They fixed everything for a very reasonable price. They are my mechanics of choice now.
I have used them since early last spring. Their work is great; it is absolutely perfect. They have done a good job on everything. It seems to be a very honest place. The guy who runs it is as friendly and honest as you could imagine. You couldn't find a better place.
It is hard to find a good mechanic that won't cheat you. At Meadlin's they will show you what needs to be done. They took me under the van to see the ball joints and everything else that was wrong, and I know enough to see that they really did need to be repaired. They wouldn't do something that the car didn't really need.
