“Shimika Wilson on Tuesday, December 23, 2025
Never have I ever been to any automotive place where the men are actually gentlemen… It’s refreshing going to a place where the workers actually care. ESPECIALLY Del, he really went above and beyond for me. Really wanted my family to have a great holiday! I’m not sure if this place is Christian based, but it sure felt like it…I couldn’t be anymore happy with my decision on choosing them to work on my car…. THANK YOU SO MUCH DEL… You definitely made this Christmas, “CHRISTMAS” GOD BLESS YOU ALL!”
“I'm not sure what has taken me so long to post a review for this shop! They are great!!! We started coming here about 3 years ago, when our other reliable mechanic (Paulco) closed down. I feel so lucky to have found Jori and his team. He is straight forward, fair, and honest. We've taken all 4 of our vehicles to him for service over the years (2 Toyotas, a Subaru, and a Ford). Thanks for all your expertise.”

“I think I’ve left a review before but I had to come back to say again how wonderful Paolo and his team are. I have been bringing my car in for at least 6 years and every single interaction I’ve had is a good one. Specifically today my car was broken into and Paolo gave me so many options as to how I could get my windows fixed despite the shop being closed throughout the weekend. This in addition to the fact Car Tender was one of the first calls I made because I knew I would immediately and very kindly be taken care of. I have never felt hassled to spend more than was necessary; have always been given a clear understanding of the issues with my car and how they may be effecting the vehicle; and feel the staff are respectfully personal in their care. I genuinely look forward to going into the office when I come. I could not recommend them enough.”
“Very knowledgeable and experienced, and also very friendly and personable. This is the first of many shops that I have tried over the years that I feel complete confidence in their work. They don’t upsell unnecessary repairs or services like so many others do. My 200k miles truck is running like new again.”
“In July, my Ford F-150 started having all sorts of problems. Engine knocking, rough starts, sputtering, limp mode, etc. I called up Doc and had the truck towed to his shop. He was able to get me in, same day, and diagnose all of the problems within 24 hrs of dropping off the truck with him.
Turns out, my truck was worse for wear than I had thought and the repair cost would have been more than the truck was worth. Instead of insisting on repairs, which would have costed me thousands, Doc advised me to cut my losses. I did have the option to repair it if I wanted to, but I sincerely appreciate him and his team’s honesty and insistence about it. Other shops I’ve had the displeasure of giving my business to would have tried to rake me over the coals, but not Doc!
You can tell as soon as you meet Doc and his team that they know their craft very well, and will take care of you and your vehicle to the best of their abilities.”

“Personable, honest, and warranties their work. Reasonable pricing and very knowledgeable. Best of all they communicate while your car is there to make sure you know the status so you can plan your day. Some loaner cars available.”
“This is a very rare place. The staff is friendly, approachable and The communication is outstanding!. Booking the appointment is organized and an easy process. They're honest and thorough.”
“They did an amazing job on my crown Victoria Police interceptor and awesome customer service answered all questions and helped me understand what was going on with my vehicle”

“I had a really excellent experience with Aurora Clutch. My clutch failed unexpectedly and my car was stalled. Derek talked me through how to safely drive to his shop, which honestly made a stressful situation manageable.
He was kind, professional, and clearly knows what he’s doing. He fixed the clutch the very next day and even gave me a ride home, which was above and beyond. His pricing was fair and reasonable.
If you’re looking for someone who is skilled, straightforward, and genuinely helpful, I highly recommend Aurora Clutch.”
“Excellent customer service, and so far the best Volvo mechanic I've been to. 256,000 miles and counting on my 02 V70 XC, and I finally feel like I found a mechanic I can trust to do the jobs I'm not cut out for. I'm very pleased with the quality of work, and that they seemed to respect that I do a lot of DIY. They actually listened to what I was saying and worked with me to figure out what makes sense to do on my car.”
“Wife's care had the tpms light on dash illuminated so took it in to have them check which wheel was out. They recommended the whole set be replaced and figured since car is like 15 years old those sensors were probably nearing end of life. Had them do all 4 since I didn't want to risk another failing and since I was already there might as well.
Additionally wanted them to check on an oil leak as I was not able to pinpoint where it was coming from. They found the source of the leak and gave me an estimate. It's a good chunk of change to fix the leak so something to consider whether it's new vehicle time or repair existing vehicle. I want to repair and wife wants a van.
Anyways service was really friendly and will use them for future work.”

“I bought a Prius and the old owner had it serviced here. I called regarding some questions, Allen answered the phone and was very helpful and eager to answer my questions. It’s very much appreciated, I’d recommend this shop.”
“Great experience. They diagnosed a tricky issue that I had already gone to another auto shop for, and they actually explained everything they were doing and worked with my schedule to get my car back quickly. My car feels noticeably better to drive now. Definitely recommend!”
“My wife and I have been taking our vehicles to Earls Garage for over 22 years.
They are very honest and trustworthy.
I never have to worry about my wife going in to pick up her car. They treat her with the same respect as they do me.
The prices are always fair and the service is great. They to an excellent job communicating with any repairs on our cars.
I highly recommend going here.
We drive over 15 miles one way to get there. Used to drive a lot further. 😁
Totally worth the drive!”
“Tony and his crew are always top notch. Great communication, very fair pricing, and quality work. I wish I would have found them years ago to get the work done right the first time, rather than having their team fix what I or another shop screwed up.”
“Nix is seriously an awesome place to take your car to. They’ve treated my 2003 Honda accord and 2023 Nissan Altima with the kindness they deserve. Communication is easy and pricing is transparent. I’m happy I found a shop I can rely on and I’ll keep brining my cars here as long as they’re around.”
“Couldn't say better things about this place. Tony was incredibly kind and helpful, and the quality of work seemed impeccable. I wish I could give more than five stars. Whatever car I own next will be a Japanese brand just to make sure I can continue coming here for repairs.”
“I left this review years ago, but only the rating is here now---weird. I don't have a Volvo anymore, but I almsot wish I did because these guys have one of the best auto repair shops I've ever been to.”
“Jorge is awesome, always gives a fair price and often won't charge for time spent. Had my engine replaced there and he did a fantastic job, price better than anywhere else that quoted.”
“Honest and quality service. After being turned away at another shop, Ed's was willing to take on my transmission fluid leak. They were transparent throughout the whole process and gave me a rundown of potential scenarios before they took it apart. Would absolutely recommend.”
“Everybody there is really nice, very inviting. They even remembered my name, which I thought was really crazy. But I really appreciate that. When I first did my business here at one point I received something from the mail, I got a scratch card. I didn't win anything but I thought that was still pretty neat. I also like the complementary shuttle service, you'll have to be a local to be able to utilize the shuttle service. It's not a bus but it's somebody's personal vehicle, like an uber”
“Great job on my brakes! Fast and friendly! I appreciate being shown the parts that were replaced and detailed description of the work. It's been a couple months ago now and my brakes are operating perfectly! ???”
“They were very fast, and reasonably priced. Sorry for the mess on my floor, guys. I did not know my fuse would be in need of a replacement, otherwise I’d have cleaned it”

“F&F has been my go to for repairs that are beyond my diy capability. I suggest friends and family to them. They’ve repeatedly demonstrated that they’ll be honest with what your car needs and doesn’t. It would be easy to do the service for a quick buck like other shops however they don’t. There’s a reason they’re rated so highly. Plus, Robert and Mark will take time to answer questions I’ve had even with their packed work schedule, I’ve always appreciated that.”
“These guys are wonderful. They patiently put up with my hemming and hawing over what to do about my battery, fiddled with my keys fobs until they worked properly and talked to me about my options for much longer than even I would have! To top it off, they barely charged for labor. Thanks a ton gentlemen! I will return! (fortunately or unfortunately) 😉”
“After my car had electrical issues, Acme did excellent and prompt work quoting my repairs. They were a pleasure to work with and extremely helpful. Would recommend!”
“I’ve been going to Paulson’s since 1997 and he is awesome. My dad and daughters have also taken their cars to him. He is honest, does a great job and has fair pricing.”
“TLC AutoCare has taken care of my vehicles for many years. I was away for a few years and didn’t use them during that time, and in that period my older Ford Escape aged quite a bit and developed major oil leaks and other issues. When I came back to TLC Auto, they treated me with the same honesty, respect, and excellent service I remembered.
They recently completed major repairs on my Escape, including timing cover work, valve cover gaskets, a crankshaft seal, an intake manifold gasket, and a new power steering pump. The work was done carefully and thoroughly, and I feel much safer driving my SUV.
As a single older woman, I really appreciate how clearly Andy explained everything and how respectfully they treat me. They kept the repairs within the budget I gave them, and never pressured me into anything unnecessary. Jon did the actual repair work, and you can tell he takes real pride in doing things right.
They also provided a loaner car, which made the whole process so much easier.
TLC AutoCare is dependable, trustworthy, and truly customer-focused. I’m grateful to have returned to a shop where I feel safe, respected, and confident in the work being done. I highly recommend Andy, Jon, and the entire team at TLC Auto.”
“I can’t say enough good things about Lamorna Garage. I was visiting Seattle from out of town and they were kind enough to fit me in on short notice to check my Land Rover Discovery. From start to finish, the experience was exceptional. They did a very thorough inspection and truly went above and beyond. It’s immediately clear that they are extremely knowledgeable and genuinely know what they’re doing. The front office staff were amazing—friendly, professional, and provided outstanding customer service. They kept me updated throughout the day with clear communication, which I really appreciated. I don’t have anyone local that I trust for car care, and after this experience, I will happily be driving three hours to make Lamorna Garage my regular service shop. They were honest, genuine, and made me feel completely confident in the care of my vehicle. I’m so grateful they were willing to work me into their busy schedule. Highly recommend!”
“I recently had a minor electrical repair under my seat. I called the shop, came an hour later, and it was repaired immediately. They were professional, quick, and gave me an amazing deal. They've earned my business moving forward.”
