“I went in on a whim to see how much it would be to remove the plastic strip from under my front bumper. It was falling off. I was greeted right away and was told there would be no charge and it was taken care of right away. Excellent customer service from Ayden. Tanks a lot.”
“Top notch! Friendly, kept in touch, know what their talking about.
I will probably need more help in the future and I'm certainly going to Midland automotive!”
“good honest people, well worth the money. No matter what vehicle we bring here I'm always satisfied with the service we receive.
Update on previous review
As we just took our vehicle back into the shop to get repaired. still extremely satisfied. These guys are great!”
“The mechanics are very well managed, I have been using them for all my pick up trucks and now I take my family vehicles there to repaired. The don't try to upsell you on a bunch of miscellaneous crap and they are reasonably priced.”
“Great service! Had an issue that required a tow and Bristow’s was able to get me in on short notice and back on the road again quickly. Communication was great and very thorough. Would highly recommend for all your Porsche needs.”
“I take all my blackhorsemasonry trucks to them they always tell me what i need and they don't try to over sell in less I ask for it. Great to work with. Also friendly”
“They did a pre-purchase inspection on a used car I was about to buy. They did a super awesome job and pointed out some things that helped me haggle with the used car dealer. Very thorough and knowledgeable and helpful!”
“First time visit. Owner Knowledgeable, receptive, competent, timely, trustworthy, and fair. Work done professionally at market prices. The owner is a personable guy who knows his way around a BMW. You can tell he's passionate about his work as the mechanic & owner. He had an easy chance to charge extra without me knowing but saved me money saying the part was fine. Saved hours and $200 on a returned part.
Better than dealer cost and my basic tuning without dyno and mapping needs for Tacoma area. Install explained thoroughly with pictures and solid recommendations to accompany recommended future maintenance. Earned my business and my first choice for future work. 5/5”
“Scott @ Stroh's is amazing.! Super personal and great at interacting with the customer. I had been putting off my oil change for a while, they got me right in and gave me a free inspection as well.! I got my car back in no time and they also changed my battery in my key fob, changed my air filter, and put air in all my tires.! Pleasantly surprised with the price as well. Overall, one of the best experiences with a mechanic I have ever had.”

“I can’t say enough good things about Sterling Automotive! I brought my Jeep in needing repairs, and from start to finish they absolutely delivered. Not only did they get my vehicle back up and running perfectly, but they also made the entire process smooth and stress-free.
What really stood out to me was their clear and consistent communication. At every step, they kept me informed about what was going on, what they found, and what needed to be done. I never felt left in the dark or wondering about the status of my Jeep—they made sure I always knew what to expect. That level of transparency is rare, and it really gave me peace of mind.
The quality of their work speaks for itself. When I picked my Jeep back up, it felt solid, reliable, and exactly how it should. They didn’t just “fix” it—they made sure it was truly right, so I could drive away with complete confidence.
Every member of their team was professional, courteous, and genuinely helpful. It was clear they take pride in what they do and care about their customers’ experience just as much as the repair itself.
Overall, Sterling Automotive went above and beyond. Between their excellent workmanship, effective communication, and customer-first attitude, I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to anyone needing service on their vehicle. If you want the job done right and want to be treated with respect along the way, Sterling Automotive is the place to go!”
“After I made a huge mistake with a local "mobile mechanix" and getting ripped off 3K by him I brought my truck to Vern's and had these guys rebuild my F250 Powerstroke Diesel Transmission. They did a fantastic job and they had it done in less than a week!! They are Super nice, not pushy at all and obviously quite knowledgeable at what they do. I'm happy and I feel that I got what I paid for. Thank you Vishwa (sp) you rock and you drove my truck like a Boss today ?”
“The best mechanic I've found in years. Tim is actually Dave's son. I needed to get my car back early for an emergency and he was there for me. Honest and trustworthy and funny!”
“6/5. Melinda and her crew are knowledgeable, reasonable, and good at what they do. I had a warranty company stalling the authorization for a job for 6 weeks. What a headache! Melinda let me keep the car at their shop the whole time without charging me. She even called the machine shop they work with and knocked $1500 off my bill. These guys have been my shop for 9 years, and they just earned my trust even more.”
“This place is truly amazing. From the moment you walk in, you’re greeted with smiles and nothing but kind words. The lobby is clean, organized, and very professional, yet still incredibly welcoming. Everyone there is soft-spoken, kind, nurturing, and very knowledgeable. They truly take the time to get you the best price possible—no overcharging and no trying to sell you things you don’t need.
And just when you think it couldn’t get any better, you look around the corner and see the cutest little dog ever—I believe his name is Max. ? That alone made my day.
I absolutely love this place and highly recommend it.”
“My brother recommended me to Mr.Tim and I will NEVER take my car to any other shop, he took my car and explained everything to me in detail and answered all my questions. Mr.Tim is an extremely kind man and as a young woman it’s hard to find a reliable shop to take your car where you don’t feel like you’re going to get taken advantage of, I’ll always recommend going to Quality care auto repair. Do not hesitate bringing your car here!!”
“Planned to have it done when I was gone for 10 days. Got back and it wasn't done for two more days a part got delayed, but the service was good and the price was good with good quality parts. Require a 500 mile check in ? in my book all and all.
And the new built transmission feels amazing ?”
“Brought my Toyota 4runner in for a steering and suspension inspection it made a really loud creaking noise when driving so I booked a appointment paid the fee for them to do the inspection and not only did I leave with peace at mind I left with my truck not creaking ! So Immediately set a appointment up for the one day I had off and with the list of problems they found on my truck they serviced it the day of the appointment and my car has never ran better ! If your looking for fair and honest people and skilled mechanics this is definitely the place to come to don't think twice !”
“Purchased a vehicle from Maple leaf motors of Spanaway we got the warranty. Lugos auto service has consistently gone above and beyond to provide our family with the best service possible for the first time we have found a shop that will deliver a service in a speedy way that you can trust to be a reliable drive from a beautiful smile from Michelle at the door to the honorable business practice from Ben and Bill and the wonderful techs that go through everything with such precision we really can not begin to express our gratitude for all of the care we have received!!! Out of 5 stars they are a 10/5 cause they honestly give their all for their customers!!!!”
“Very good company, I had a problem 5 years ago, and lived right down the street, and even though they specialize in transmission work. My work didn't involve any transmission work, but he knew I needed the work done and was in a tight spot, so he went ahead and did the work immediately for me so I could make it to work the next day, and he didn't realize how much that meant to me, and it meant so much that, I'm posting this comment 5 years later, as I had this company pop up on my profile, to give feedback for some reason. And I have always remembered that they did this for me, and I had to make sure that they know I still remember the great work they did, and how they went out of the way to help me, and they didn't have to by any means, but thank you so much for the help you gave me that day”
“Great place Great people helped me alot with multiple vehicles
I highly recomend them if you need mechanical help this is my go to place if I need mechanical help give them a try u won't be disappointed and there prices are very fair compared to other shops also they have a decent warranty coverage on there work”
“Did a good job on truck repair timely, professional, price didn't bite too. 4 stars because they need to work on customer service. We let people know we will pay with EFS upfront. They didn't had blank check so threaten us to hold truck hostage till we get one.”
“This place is THE place to go with all of your automotive needs. I recently acquired a 09 Avalanche that had some issues going on. From oil pressure dropping. To the air bags blown that were previously installed. Apex took care of it all! She runs like a champ now! Feels brand new and didn’t cost me an arm and a leg. I also had electrical work that needed to be done and they have fixed it all. Andy and Aaron are amazing and really go out of their way to make sure they can get the work done while not breaking your bank. I highly recommend Apex to anyone that needs any work done on their vehicles. While dealerships are focusing on bringing in revenue, the guys at Apex are focused on getting you back on the road safely! Love my truck now thanks to the team at Apex!”
“Recently, as I was out doing errands at different stops, I suddenly realized that my brakes were barely working, having to push them down as far as I could to make a stop. I immediately returned home and called McCabe's Auto to ask for their immediate, if possible, attention to my lack of brake power in our car. They said to bring it in immediately, which we did, and they examined, and repaired, our brake system in just 24 hours. As this is our only car, we so appreciated their quick help and repair when it was badly needed. They were very kind to us and returned our car in perfect working condition - for which we are very, very grateful.”
“My experience was fantastic. Service advisor was awsome. Price was unbelievably good for the repair i needed. I was in and out in an hour without appointment. I highly recommend this shop!”
“Matt was very patient with explaining the final bill being different that the original estimate and worked with us to make things right. He left us feeling understood and taken care of.”
“5/5, highly recommend, this will be my go-to shop!!I brought my 07 Honda Civic to this shop because I had a leaky sunroof and windshield. The owner, Mark, and front office person, Bethany, were incredibly friendly, helpful, and understanding. They kept me very well informed of the procedures they were doing, let me know what the "must do" vs "can do later" fixes were, and were very clear about costs of things. Also, there was absolutely NONE of that cliché "you're a woman in an auto shop, so I'll talk down to you or make you feel less than" stuff. (That may seem like a small thing, but women will tell you it's a big deal.)I picked up my car yesterday, and I am absolutely thrilled with the work. They even found a couple of things the previous owner had left behind under the seats that I had missed (purchased about 16 months ago)! I plan to take my car back when their seasonal detail shop is open, and my partner will be bringing their car in for some tune-up work. Mark & Co have a "our customers are honest, hardworking folks, so we're gonna do right by them" mentality, and it clearly shows in how they talk with folks and the work they do.”
“I simply needed transmission fluid added to my car and Ron at the transmission shop only charged me $30. I feel that was a very fair price and that was my first time getting business with him. I would definitely endorse this transmission shop”
“Bill is a cool guy.
The whole process is very straightforward. Drop off. Problem. Approve. Boom. Done.
All fixed within the day. Cool guy Bill.”
“I recently had my backyard transformed, and I couldn't be happier with the results! The landscaping contractor I hired was professional, attentive to detail, and truly brought my vision to life. Highly recommended!”
