On vacation from California, my vehicle developed a vibration at highway speeds. I also noticed a pulsing motion when braking. I phoned Wilhelm at their Thunderbird Rd. location, and the manager told me I could bring it in, drop it off, and they would diagnose the problem(s) and call me. Shortly thereafter, he called me with the news that both the front rotors were warped, and the wheels were out of balance. I gave him the go-ahead, and by 2 pm he called to say the job was done. I feel the price was fair, and upon driving the vehicle it felt brand new! Quality work and great customer service! Highly recommend!

I love Wilhelm! They have always treated me like family, even remembering to say happy birthday or recognize my family members coming in with me. Their referral and points program is awesome for spreading their good name and getting discounts. They are timely and honest about what they can get done in a day, and they’re open early! I even moved farther away from the shop but have had such good experiences with them, that it’s always worth it to keep coming back!

Dean was my service advisor. He was very cordial and helpful. They had my car serviced and in back to me sooner than expected. I would definitely recommend Wilhelm on W. Thunderbird.

The 3 stars is only because i got an oil change for free. The service was terrible.I received a coupon for a free oil change so I called to schedule with Wilhelm. I’ve used other locations before and had good service. They told me they couldn’t get me in for five days. I took the first available appointment.I went in and had my oil changed when they advised I needed a new air filter. The entire appointment took well over 90 minutes. They had quoted me less than an hour when a scheduled. But still, fine.Today, they called to say they didn’t actually replace my air filter because they found the parts sitting on a shelf. They wanted me to come back in to have work done, again. Absolutely ridiculous, honestly. What a waste of time. I asked for a refund instead.

Very friendly establishment. Great service. Rick The service advisor was so kind I took in a coupon that a friend had given to me after services were completed and he applied it to my costs. $50 off brake service. That coupon clearly stated to present at time of service so I was very pleased. I was so happy with the service and the establishment that I scheduled to have my vehicle inspected by them.My brakes are working fabulous.Thank you so much Rick.Linda R

This is my go to shop and has been for well over a year (probably 2) and have 0 complaints. I’ve taken a variety of different vehicles which have all had amazing work done. I’d like to touch up on customer service... do not let this sway you from going to another shop! The last work I had done was a head gasket replacement (not a easy task especially on a diesel), the day after I got the truck back I noticed a small oil leak, joe had me bring the truck in the next business day and made sure to get it in and out as fast as possible (within a hour or 2). Point being they do amazing work and very rarely do they need to do warranty repairs, and the one time I had a issue Joe was more then helpful in resolving it.

Review №11

Came in today for a headlight change on my hyundai. was really dreading taking care of it but Joe and Nancy made it so easy. I did not make an appointment but the technician was finishing up an oil change and fit me in right after. I paid a far less than a reasonable price for the headlight and I am thrilled with my service. Thank you so much! I will definitely be back to get my brakes checked out.

This was my first visit to this location. I was greeted with a smile by Conway. He was very professional in his manner and listened to my questions. I was treated the way I would treat another person and I think we are building a good relationship. I will continue to visit this location with all my automotive needs, great people and great service, thank you

Wilhelm is always friendly and prompt. They never try to convince me I need something I dont; one of the most honest companies Ive ever had the pleasure of working with. I dont take my car anywhere else because I know I can trust taking it to Wilhelm.

I was on my way home and my check engine and bettery light came on as I was passing this location. I made a u-turn and was greeted by Michael. He was very pleasant and listened to what issues I was having with my vehicle.I advised of cost of diagnostics and that it would be about an hour. I said I could wait and he offered to get me an uber and he would call and provide an update and I would have the vehicle the same day. Michael called informed me it was more complex due to needing a computer update from the dealer. You know cars, of course not a simple resolution. Anyway, Michael ordered me an uber to pick me up for the return and didnt charge me for the diagnostic. He was very pleasant to deal with. I will be taking my repair and maintenance jobs to them just due to the customer service!!!

Vehicle brought in for routine maintenance. Inspection found many things that needed the attention of a mechanic. The management staff worked with me and my budget to get the necessary repairs completed. Since the repairs were taking longer than anyone expected, they provided me with a rental car so I would not be without transportation. Great experience. I will return for service in the future.

I needed a new clutch and throw out bearings. I dropped off the truck late Friday. They diagnosed the problem very quickly. They said they would try and get the truck back the next day, Saturday. They almost got it done, but they came across another problem. And they never received the additional part. I called my regular mechanic and he said I was in good hands. He was right on the money. Great service for a fair price .

I was very impressed with the quality of service by Joe and Rod. They went above expectations to help me. The reason I will refer them to others is because of their honesty and the time they took to explain everything they found and the way to fix the problems. I have already referred another to them. This was my daughters car and it really put her mind at ease with the written report they gave me.

I am a single mom and have been taking my car to Wilhelm for many years. You are always greeted like family from the moment you walk through the door. I don’t know anything about cars, and live on a budget, being a single mom. The office team is great. If it is dangerous and needs fixed now for you and your kids safety, they tell you honestly. I’ve been told...I would not let my wife, mom or sister drive it like this, let me get you a ride home. On the other hand,.....they will also tell you, if it can wait and keep an eye on it. Let you know approximately how much time you have, so you can start saving to fix it. I’ve been to several locations all over town, depending on where I’ve lived over the years. They are all fantastic. I would not take my car anywhere else. You won’t be disappointed at Wilhelm. I highly recommend.

This was my 2nd visit, first was with a coupon from a mailer. Price seemed fair, wait area was clean and comfortable so I went back for the 2nd time. Again price was good and I heard the desk man talking to a couple of different customers and going above and beyond to serve them the right way. I will go the next time I need service as well.

Knowledgeable and friendly service at a fair market price. Scheduled my service, did the work I ask for, and had vehicle ready in the time they told me. Im thinking these guys will now be my regular service providers.

Re
Review №60

The teams at Wilhelm auto (59th ave. & Thunderbird) are throwbacks to the “good, honest, neighborhood” mechanic of back in the day. They always give you an honest price, treat their customers with respect and NEVER just find something wrong with your vehicle to make a sale. Whether I’m spending hundreds of dollars or just getting a free checkup, the service is Always top notch.

If anything on your vehicle needs more than an oil change, I would find another mechanic. The use of after market parts as well as the lack of knowledge of mechanics is enough to keep you wondering if its really fixed!

I took my car here for a routine oil change. When I went home my car was smoking down the road. I called them and said what was going on. They told me to bring it back in and they would check it out. Found out the tech had overfilled my oil which caused the smoking. Was fixed right away and no problems since. Will go here again. Staff at the front was very helpful and took care of what I needed.

Came for an affordable oil change, and left feeling like a V.I.P. client. They saved me money upfront, signed me up for a membership, gave me referral cards for friends and family, the list goes on and on.

I called on 1/18/21 to make an appt for an oil change on my 2016 Ford Fusion hybrid. Understand that I have had my oil changed at this location on the same vehicle in the past. He pulled up my acct knew what I needed according to the vehicle and quoted me $49.95 with a coupon. I made the appt for 1/19/21. My husband brought the vehicle for the oil change and was told the price would actually be $65.00!! Apparently my car requires more oil than the $49.95 price allowed, and the extra quart cost an additional $15.00 despite the fact the first five were only $9.99 a qt. This is total bait and switch!! I will not return and will be certain to let my fiends and family know.

My second visit here and for a second time Im getting a list of things that need to be done to the car that may or may not fix problems, and Im told that the coolant is leaking and I need a $650 repair and a $200 coolant flush to get it fixed, their labor rates are $149 an hour supposedly but I just got a $49 oil change that took an hour? I think $149 an hour is very expensive!
