W a r r e n t o n
Tire & Auto,
located at 19
B r o a d v i e w
A v e n u e i n
Warrenton, is saying
goodbye to longtime employee
Bryan Folts, who is retiring after
near ly 40 years as an auto
technician, including 18 years with
Warrenton Tire & Auto. Customers
k n o w B r y a n f o r h i s s k i l l ,
thoroughness, and steady presence
in the shop.
Bryan joined Warrenton Tire & Auto
on November 14, 2007, not long
after the Noland family took
over the business in 2006.
Tom and Vicky Noland, along
with their son Travis, will
celebrate the shop's 20th
anniversar y under family
ownership in August. Bryan
has been part of that story
almost from the beginning.
"It's been a great place to
work," he says. "Every year on
November 14, I'd go up to
Travis and Tommy and thank
them for giving me a job."
Travis says Bryan's knowledge,
experience, and thorough
approach have made him an
important part of the business
for many years. He says Bryan
also helped the shop grow
from a business many people
knew mainly for tires and
inspections into a full automotive
repair and diagnostic facility.
Today, that growth is reflected in the
shop's full range of automotive
repair services and their ability to fill
tire orders the same day or by the
next day. Travis says longtime
technicians like Bryan help make
that growth possible.
Bryan praises the way the business
takes care of its customers. He says
the front office works hard to maintain
clear communication, respond to
customer concerns, and build strong
rapport with the people who come
through the door. Travis says that
customer-centered approach has
always been central to the business.
The business is now welcoming
Warren Pieratt as an auto technician.
Warren began
h i s c a r e e r
t h r o u g h
G e n e r a l
Motors' factory
training program in
partnership with Northern Virginia
Community College, where he
earned an associate degree in
applied science. He later worked for
GM as well as at independent and
Goodyear shops, including about 12
years in Arlington. He says the
opportunity and the people at the
shop made the move feel like the
right fit.
As Bryan prepares to step away, he
says some longtime customers have
already told him they are sorry to see
him leave. Even so, he says he feels
good knowing the team will continue
taking care of them. For Travis,
Bryan's retirement also marks the
close of a longstanding working
relationship. "It's been a relationship
I'll cherish forever," he shares.
After retirement, Bryan plans to stay
busy. He and his wife recently closed
on a newly built home at Lake Anna,
where he looks forward to settling in,
enjoying lake life, and working on a
couple of Jeeps in his three-bay
garage. For more information, call
(540) 349-0900.
