Huge shoutout to JeffreyH from Slim-N-Hanks. We broke down on I-88 and he provided outstanding service. He was genuinely friendly and helpful, first towing us to the local Midas and then on the longer haul to our local dealership. He made a very stressful situation so much easier. Thanks again Jeff.
