“I’ve used these guys a few times now! Straight forward colorist come first serve, price was good and the folks are nice! Will continue using them for my Exhaust needs”
“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.”
“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”
“From start to finish, the Bristow's service experience is top notch. Consummate professional staff who care about getting things right and care as much about your car as you do. I appreciate Bristow's so much...nothing like peace-of-mind when it comes to who you trust to service your prized possession!”
“Best shop I have ever been to in my life. The owner is so patient and responded to all my questions and charged me a EXTREMELY reasonable and fair price to fix my BMW x3. I will never go to another shop. While I was getting 17-22k quote most places to get my car fixed- Marlen only charged me 4.5k out the door and my car has never run better. I am beyond thankful for running across this shop and working with them. Honest, reliable and fantastic work. Not to mention VERY FAIR pricing. Thank you thank you thank NW Autowork! I am so happy to have found a mechanic I can trust. If you are trying to find a primary mechanic for your car especially a place that focuses on foreign vehicles this is the place hands down.”
“I called and had a question about work that was suggested by my dealership. John very nicely offered to take a look to ensure what I was told was correct and so he could give me a proper estimate.
Easily got in, gave me honest information and opinion and even fit me in for an oil change! Definitely will be coming back!”
“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.”

“Very reliable mechanic! Trustworthy! Honest! For many years I would take company vehicles for maintenance. Opened my own buisness and now I take my personal and work vehicles to them exclusively!”
“Great shop to go too! Had a issue with my 2020 Silverado with a 10 speed and I had taken it into Chevy and 2 other places that either couldn’t figure out what was causing my issue or they told me I needed a new transmission which was BS. They found a frayed wire and repaired it quickly for a fair price. As long as I live in the area I will be going to them for any technical transmission needs. I highly recommend if you want quality work for an affordable price.”

“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!”
“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.”
“Environment: Wonderful; definitely has auto shop vibes and clean.
Service: I stopped by on Saturday (8/15/26). Rudy was truly helpful as well as the older gentlemen (Sorry I did not catch your name) who told me twice at the front desk that Rudy would be back in a second to assist.
I appreciated the service received and was disappointed. Thank you for fitting me in on your busy schedule, much appreciated!”
“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!!”
“This shop is a hidden gem! Every employee there went above and beyond, they were incredibly kind and explanatory, friendly, and FAST! The shop is clean, organized, you can tell the guys enjoy being there and take pride in their work. The name may be a bit deceiving, they work on more than just transmissions. 10/10 recommend and will be back”
“Awesome shop awesome people My transmission went out in my Ford Transit 250 once I dropped my vehicle off with them they had me back on the road in 4 days 👍”
“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.”
“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.”
“Dave was very communicative through the entire process. I brought my car in For a code that had been reading for about a year for emissions. They even replaced a passenger side seat switch that I mentioned at the front desk while dropping off the car. They replaced all of my spark plugs.I dropped my car off midday Monday and I was called the very next day to pick it up. They were very informative. Let me know all of the details about my car and I recommend them 100%. Their prices were extremely reasonable. Moving forward I will bring my car to them anytime I am needing anything. Overall, excellent customer service.”
“Kirsty at the front desk honestly rebuilt, transmissions, too, which I was shocked at, but she’s been there 35 years. I investigated this company a lot before I had My Transmission pretty much totally rebuilt. They were local company. I could’ve got a rebuilt transmission much less, but they would have to ship it and I would have to install it and I didn’t want to go through that. Honestly, would’ve been a little bit more money if I did that. But they did rebuild my transmission. I thought I had a problem with it. I did everything executed everything exactly as the warranty. And again, Christie was very nice about making this happen because I was rushing to Las Vegas to see my children before Christmas. She found me a place in Idaho that would give me my 500 mile warranty. I had a problem and I thought it was the transmission because it was banging very hard and when I took it back to them under the warranty. They were very nice we drove around and he said it was a misfire on cylinder 1 Five and eight. Everything in the transmission was working perfectly, so I would absolutely recommend them”
“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.”

“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.”
“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”
“I trust Air Imports with my Mercedes. They are professional and know what they are doing. Also, they only use Mercedes parts. Nothing aftermarket. I appreciate that kind of service.”
“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.”
“Took my car to this auto repair shop after it started making a weird noise, and they figured it out right away. The staff was honest, explained everything clearly, and got the repair done quicker than I expected. The car runs perfectly now, and the price was fair too. Definitely my go-to shop from now on!”
