Jamie Smith
Service/Detail Manager/Sales
Jamie started putting his over 26 years experience in Auto Reconditioning to work for CAR 1 in 2009. His background also includes 2.5 years as a Certified Chrysler Mechanic and 4.5 years as a Certified GM Mechanic, so when we decided to open our Service Department to the public in 2013, he was a natural fit to manage/work in both the Detailing and Service Departments. In 2020, due to growth in our Service Department, Jamie took on the role of full time Service Manager/Salesman.
