Visiting family in the Fentress Airfield area this weekend and noticed a nail in the right front tire. I called Taylor Automotive, and they said they could work it in this afternoon. The technician checked and found just a short piece of a screw in the tire that hadn’t gone all the way through. I was on my way in no time thanks to the courteous professionals at Taylor Automotive! Thanks again! - Edwin L. (5 star review on Google)
