Here at Performance Unlimited, we give thanks for opportunities to serve our clients


Most days of the year, businesses focus on providing quality products and services for their customers. Those customers are thankful for that philosophy and what it means to them in terms of savings, convenience and peace of mind. Still, when they discussed that which they’re thankful for over Thanksgiving dinner that doesn’t mean they included quality products and services in that list.

Most are more likely to remember when they don’t receive quality products or services or if they pay too much. This is, at least, equally true in the automotive industry.

Having an auto repair shop they can trust is a big part of life for many drivers. Those times when they received inferior workmanship tend to stand out in their minds. Few are inclined to thank an auto repair shop for poor service.

“Here at Performance Unlimited, we’re thankful throughout the year that our customers trust us with their cars,” said owner Denny Norton. “Our first priority is to earn that trust.”

Norton went on to say that customers can take their cars wherever they want for service. That many choose Performance Unlimited is quite a compliment. It’s also an indication of how seriously they appreciate their customers at the auto repair shop in Ringwood.

“It’s far more difficult to gain someone’s trust than it is to lose it,” Norton said. “We have all the latest automotive testing equipment. Our technicians have the highest possible training and regularly take courses to maintain their knowledge at the leading edge of the industry. But, our most important asset is our reputation.

“We don’t take it lightly when someone believes in us. We start every day here with the realization that we can enhance our reputation by continuing to provide the best quality auto repair and maintenance services possible. But, if we let down, even a little bit, we can lose that trust in an instant.”

The goal, Norton said, is to ensure that every customer who pulls out of the lot is a satisfied customer. While customers appreciate that business philosophy, Norton said customers have a right to expect nothing less than the best a business can offer.

“I hope our customers are thankful they have a place to bring their cars where they can trust in the service and workmanship they’ll receive,” Norton said. “But, more importantly, we’re thankful for the opportunity to earn and keep their trust.”

Is your antifreeze safe from freezing this Richmond winter

You still have time to have it checked Well, there’s no denying it – winter tends to get chilly here in Richmond. We have to deal with snow and ice on the roads, scraping the same off our windows and windshield, and staying warm while we drive. Of course, you had your antifreeze checked before winter rolled into town. What?! You didn’t have your antifreeze checked before winter clamped down on Richmond? So, how’s your antifreeze doing?  If you haven’t had it checked, there’s really no way of knowing, is there? This car has overheated in the middle of a Richmond  winter. But, on the other end of the spectrum, the antifreeze can also freeze if it's not up to its job. Hopefully, you haven’t had a serious problem with your antifreeze already. If you did, you’d probably know. When antifreeze fails, it’s a potentially catastrophic condition for your vehicle’s engine. You could have hoses that have burst because of freezing antifreeze. Worse than that, your engine block may have crac...

Blocks of ice falling from cars in McHenry could cause accidents or damage

We’ve all seen those blocks of snow falling from behind the rear tires of a car when the snow rolls into McHenry . Fortunately, they’re just packed snow that will disintegrate under your vehicle’s tires as you simply drive right through them, right? Don’t count on it. Those blocks of snow are often packed so tight, condensed by the thaw-and-freeze cycle, that they’re anything but oversized snowballs . They’re often more like boulders.  Hit one of those blocks and the collision between the block and one of your tires could send you careening off the road or into oncoming traffic. In some cases, they’re so solid you could pound them with a sledgehammer with little effect. They truly can represent a serious road hazard. The problem is that it’s difficult to tell how solidly they’re packed when you see them on the road, left their unwittingly by another driver. Either way, your best bet is to try to avoid them. But you want to be careful dodging blocks of ice in the road, too. You need...

October 20 Hootenanny will benefit veterans with PTSD

Been to a Hootenanny lately? When you read that question did you ask, “What?” Well, if you have gone to a Hootenanny in a while, or if you don’t know what a hootenanny is, we have an event for Oct. 20 that will clear up either question. From 6 p.m. to Midnight, Saturday, Oct. 20, MC3, the McHenry Area Chamber of Commerce business networking group, is helping to host an inaugural Veterans R&R Wild Horse Hootenanny at Beyond Stable Farm (11129 Rte. 176, Woodstock). The event will benefit Veterans R&R Operation Wild Horse. Operation Wild Horse serves veterans with PTSD (Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder). Working with the horses has proven to have an incredibly calming effect on the veterans. And, it’s good for the horses, too, rescued wild mustangs. This means that the hootenanny is for a very good cause. But, it’s also a lot of fun. So, what is a hootenanny? According to a Google search, a hootenanny is “an informal gathering with folk music and sometimes dancing.” The V...
