I live in Las Vegas NV and found Lee's as i was on a trip to upstate NY. Had my vehicle serviced in Las Vegas and developed oil leak during trip. Lee found the problem and fixed it on short notice. Lee, Steve, and Josh did excellent service. Now I make it a point to coordinate my trips to allow service at Lee's. My latest trip i purposefully drove my vehicle 1500 miles to Independence to have Lee's service my vehicle. Their work is far superior to anyone I have found in Las Vegas and they save me money. Even when the cost of the trip is included with the cost of Lee's service. It was less expensive to make the trip to Lee's than to have same service in Las Vegas NV and Lee's is better quality work.
