New auto shop owner says experience will help him provide customers with quality care
With 25 years in the auto repair business -- a career that took him from mechanic to district manager and vp of operations for other people's businesses -- Steve Getty says he's found a place he wants to put down roots, in Batavia.
Getty has acquired a former oil change and auto repair location at 4003 W. Main St. and opened up Syd's Automotive.
"It feels really good to own my own business," Getty said, "especially being where I live."
Asked what will set his business apart, he said, "quality."
"Most companies in the industry I'm in focus on the fast," Getty said. "We'll be quality first, fast second. It's still a fast oil change, but you're getting a quality oil change, quality repair work."
