Fort Jackson Commanding General Brig. Gen. Patrick Michaelis, Command Sgt. Maj. Cesar Duran and Columbia Chamber of Commerce Vice President of Public Policy and Military Affairs Susan McPherson joined Exchange General Manager Kimberly Neiss to cut the ribbon on the auto-care center, which sports eight bays and offers services including oil change, tire rotation, wheel alignment, tire replacement, brake service, diagnostics, engine tune-ups and more.
“Bringing Firestone Complete Auto Care to Fort Jackson makes life more convenient for Soldiers and their families, enabling them to have all their auto maintenance and repair needs met without leaving the installation,” Neiss said. “The Exchange remains committed to enhancing the Quality-of-Life for the Fort Jackson community, and we look forward to continuing to make Fort Jackson a better place to live and work through further investments in this incredible community.”
The Firestone Complete Auto Care at Fort Jackson is the 41st opened at a military installation through the Exchange, with the first opening in 1993 at Fort Lewis, Washington. Additional Exchange upgrades planned for Fort Jackson include a Panda Express restaurant, set to open this year at the main Exchange food court.
