Servicing Your BMW, Mini, Mercedes, Smart, Lexus, Audi
  Mini Service Raleigh NCAs our customers will tell you Mercedes-Benz is not just a car or a car line. It is a one hundred year legacy of fine automobiles. The folks at The Car Place have been a part of that legacy for nearly thirty years working at both the dealership and independent dealer level. That’s the kind of experience it takes to service and repair your Mercedes properly.

The Car Place’s Joe Piojda has been in involved in automotive repair in the triangle since 1981. While working at the local Mercedes dealer he discovered his fist love (automotivly speaking) Mercedes Benz! Joe’s strong technical background combined with his desire to be the best has made him one of the most knowledgeable Mercedes technicians in the Triangle area. He is a certified Trainer who works in conjunction with Euro-Diagnostics based out of Florida. Joe travels through- out the country providing training for Mercedes technicians.

Joe has been a great addition to The Car Place family, complementing our knowledge of the Classic Mercedes cars with his incredible skill on the most current vehicles.

A recent trend in the automotive world is to extend service intervals to an almost ridiculous milage interval. To the untrained eye this makes the cars more affordable to operate but….beware! these extended service intervals sometime as much as 16k miles will dramatically reduce the service life of that fine German engineered engine, if you love your Mercedes Benz as much as we do, talk to us about a reasonable service routine.

To all the office staff and technicians at The Car Place ... Thank you for your outstanding 5 star service, continued honesty, complementary hand car washes ... and most importantly ...
