Archive for January 2017How Does Hans Imports Know What to Recommend?Posted January 24, 2017 7:12 AMWhen you drop your vehicle off at Hans Imports in North Kingstown, they don't just poke around under your hood looking for stuff to do. Hans Imports professionals have lists and procedures they follow for different types of service. First of all, your North Kingstown service center will note the mileage on your vehicle. They'll then check to see what inspections and services the vehicle manufacturer recommends for a vehicle of your make, model and mileage. If you are a regular customer, they will also check your vehicle's history. You can think of it like a trip to the dentist for a check-up. The dentist will check if you've had x-rays recently. If not, he'll get your permission to take new ones. Then the hygienist will clean your teeth and check your gums. At the end, the dentist comes in and inspects your teeth. You'll be told if you need any work done, about problems that are developing, and if anything is urgent. You'll be given different care options and recommendations on where to get work done that is beyond your dentist's usual purview. Then you'll be sent to the front desk for appointments and paperwork.

What our clients are saying about us
We have established longterm and stable partnerships with various clients thanks to our excellence in solving their automotive needs!
My 2012 Audi didn’t pass inspection and I was getting really fed up with service from other shops. Someone recommended Hans and I feel like I hit the lottery with Omar. He was kind, thorough, honest, and accommodating. My old girl passed inspection and runs better than when I bought her! TY, TY, TY to Omar and Dave, you’ve restored my faith that there are good people out there and not everyone is looking to screw you over just because you have a European car.
Excellent shop. Thorough and honest. I've had all sorts of repairs and routine maintenance done on my older (2006) Subaru. My car is old enough to vote and it runs flawlessly thanks to Omar and his team. Work is consistently high quality. If you care about your vehicle this is the place to bring it.
