Carl was fantastic. Our old mechanic closed their shop and we found out way to Carl via yelp reviews and we'll be taking both our cars to him from now on. Great communication, he made sure we were just getting what we needed done.

The best mechanic I've ever worked with. Honest. Straightforward. Personable. It's all just real talk and Carl knows what he's doing. I can't recommend highly enough.

Carl is a great mechanic and wouldn't trust anyone else to take care of my car. I've known him for years and he always takes time to explain what needs to be fixed and he shows me the parts that he's had to replace. I trust him to do the best job for me and my vehicles.

Carl is amazing. He is the most honest and fair mechanic I have ever met. He doesn't try and screw anyone over by over charging for unnecessary repairs. He will tell you when its time to look for a new car as well. There is a reason he is hard to get into, because he has a such a loyal following. He is the best mechanic in Boise!Services: General repairs & maintenance

Carl is the best.About 2 months ago my prius gave me a scary code asking me to pull over in a safe place. I took the car to Carl. He helped it out with great care, diagnosing the issue with skill and competence. He went out of his way to learn everything he could about the hybrid system and remedies for the issue. Eventually, after talking through a few options, we decided to swap out the hyrbid battery. This seemed pretty scary, but I felt confident in Carl's abilities. He took care of it and was over the moon about the learning experience. He taught me all about the system and I left with what feels like a brand new prius. Better gas mileage than when I first purchased it.If you're looking for an excellent mechanic interested in the future of hybrid and electric vehicles, Carl's Auto Repair is the place to go.

My work has been using Carl's for a long time, so I brought my 2001 Tundra to him when it needed its 200k timing/water pump/etc done. I'm really protective of my truck given it's my first vehicle and I depend on it for my job.He got it done quickly, no hassle, in 24 hours. Price was good, less than I had budgeted for. Really happy with the results and highly recommend.Service: General repairs & maintenance

Carl has probably saved me thousands of dollars in this calendar year alone. He gives quality recommendations, and is generally a good human when it comes to giving advice about car repairs. He's also very knowledgeable and can explain problems/solutions in plain English rather than car speak. A friend originally recommended Carl's Auto Repair to me, and it was the best recommendation I've ever received.Service: General repairs & maintenance

I've brought all my vehicles (except the Volkswagen Passat, which was unfixable) to Carl for nearly 25 years now and am always impressed with his detailed explanations, excellent shop rate, attention to detail and high level of customer service that he provides. And to top it off, he is a supporter and industey leader in energy sustainability, recycling initiatives, and a valued contributer to local youth sports. As long as he's around, I'll continue to funnel my business his way!

One of the best and most honest mechanics in Boise. My wife has been taking her cars to Carl for years and he is amazing.
