Took my car in for a head casket repair, Some parts took longer then usual so Paul instantly called me and let me know about the delay and offer me a free oil change once it’s needed. A few months went by and I have had no more issue with my car not only that they check my car again to make sure there were no issue also Paul honor his word and did change my oil for free!They are so polite honest and respectful and will do there best to fix your car problems. I would highly recommend this shop and also affordable!
I was looking for a new shop after moving, and Ive found it. They were helpful, looked everything over and didnt do or recommend anything unexpected. Further, they were very friendly and let me know I could take care of the engine and cabin filter myself (I like to do small things on my car- it makes me feel handy), which I did, and they kept the cost of the oil change very reasonable. Ill be going back for all my future service, because trust is the most important thing I look for in a car shop. They were honest, prompt, and extremely helpful in meeting my car care goals!
Tempe local spot for all things broken on your car. Listen, Paul shoots it straight. They get you in, out, bam! I really enjoy my interactions (includes you too Travis!) And the mechanics are fantastic. I really feel like I can have a conversation with everyone there. I drive 20 minutes to take my car there. Period. You should too 🙌
Honest management, fair pricing, and highly capable work. I will definitely be a customer again. I highly recommend Paul and his friendly crew!
They were all very professional when I spoke with them and kept my expectations in check and we’re communicative when they found issues.
Came here because of the reviews and was a great decision. They got my car in quickly, diagnosed it and repaired it in a very timely manner. They were very friendly and even came in a little under the already reasonable quoted price. They even took the time to call me a few days later to thank me for my business. Hard to find service like that these days. Highly recommend.
Great shop to use. Paul helps me keep our fleet on the road without breaking the bank. Thanks to the whole team.
Great job. Picked me up to go get my car. Took less time than expected.
Great people, very helpful even though I dropped in without a call they took care of me right away.
These guys are awesomeThey fix my truckThey charge me $100 less than the agreement that we didI recommend this place to everyone
The guys at The Car Shop are excellent. I’ve only been in Arizona for 5 months and I’ve had two tires that needed replacing and the guys helped me out and worked on my car hassle free. Not only that but they’re also a locally owned business which we should be supporting anyway.
Absolutely amazing service. I felt like I was genuinely being taken care of and not being fed a bunch of lies. They were quick and efficient and did a great job. I will definitely be returning
Great fast service!!! These guys are awesome. We are from WI and ran over a screw and leaking tire air. Stopped in for help and they were gracious to fix the tire. Thank you Paul, Travis, and Mathew!!
Paul took care of me fast with excellent results. I need my van for my business. Without it I dont make money and Im down. I brought my van in on a busy day. He gave me a time frame and a price. He nailed the time frame but was 300.00 less on the original estimate. Who does that. Van runs awesome. Im up and making money. Thank you Paul and Thank you Jeff was my Machnic. 5stars baby
Great service, talented staff! Extreme knowledge of my vehicle and helped me out!
Had a great experience at the car shop. They fixed my stripped out aluminum oil pan, an oil change and checked for leaks. Gave us a dicount on the oil, and the total amount came out to be a more than fair price. And gave me ride home, plus had a good conversation. They seem like very good people. I will be continuing business with them.
I reached when my front brakes decided to stop working. I found you by doing a Google search and the reviews were spot on. Great service, great price and the work was done fast. Definitely a 10 in my book!
They told me upfront that they were busy and it might take a few days to get to my truck. They kept me posted daily and found the problem and promptly repaired the issues. Ive had my truck back for almost 2 weeks and everything is perfect. I couldnt be happier. Ive been hoping to find a neighborhood shop that does quality work and I finally have. Will use again 10/10
Always very helpful, and friendly
My vehicle was having battery issues and I couldn’t figure out why. I took my car In and I thought the customer service was great but realized this place just takes advantage of clients who aren’t familiar with auto work. They called to let me know I would need a new battery since mine was “leaking” and the connections needed to be redone. Total charge to fix: $430.00. I told the shop I was not able to pay that much. The shop literally charged me $135 to just look at my vehicle. So I took my vehicle to autozone to check my battery. My battery was fine! Not even leaking! All I had to purchase was a $3 part from autozone and my car has not had any battery issues since. So if youre a broke student that wants to be taken advantage of like me apparently, then go here.
Had a flat tire that needed to be replaced with the spare, but I didnt have the proper tool.Had the van towed to The Car Shop. Not only did they have the required tool the lower the spare from under the van, but they changed the tire at no cost and within minutes of my arrival. Now that may have to do with any agreement they might have with USAA Insurance, but they could have charged me and I would have been none the wiser. I suspect though it is actually an indication of their superior customer service.I say this because in addition to the prompt service they gave me the tool I needed FOR FREE. Its an old one anyway. WOW! Completely unexpected and appreciated.I highly recommend The Car Shop if you need service on your vehicle. I will definitely be going to them for my future needs.
I moved to Tempe 4 years ago as a not-car-savvy 18 year old, 1700 miles away from my family. I and am so fortunate to have found such a great shop. Paul and Tom have taken exceptional care of me throughout my college career. They are always willing to call my dad, or to explain everything to me in a very understandable way.They are always honest, professional and kind. And I am so glad I got to be their customer for 4 years. I am moving after graduation and will miss this shop very much!
Top tier auto shop. Highest level of professionalism. Stress free. You wont find a better shop.
These guys are awesome! Price was really good too! Customer service A+++ Paul was awesome too! Came in for an oil change done quick and right! Highly recommended I will be coming back here next time for sure! Thanks The Car Shop! No wonder you have great reviews!
Excellent shop. I hit a giant tire on the high way going 70mph. My car was pretty badly damaged. They fixed me up and broke down what is absolutely needed, what is cosmetic, and what not. Saved me a lot of money. My car has been running excellent since the accident couple month agoYou’ve earned a lifelong customer. Thank you
Excellent mom and pop shop looking to help you out! Not over priced.
The customer service is great. They are very friendly and genuinely want to offer the best help. They got an aftermarket part for my car and the price for the whole repair turned out to be less then I was prepared for.
Awesome shop, everyone was super nice and took care of my oil change and patched up a screw they found in my tire for free. my car is my baby and this is a place i trust to take it. definitely would recommend, especially for college students
These are the only guys I trust my car with! Great, friendly service. Fair prices and they always get the repair done quick. Do yourself a favor and come here the next time you need work done on your car!
Great service and techs.
Great service
They accurately diagnosed my oil leak issue and had my car repaired before the end of the day. They were friendly, attentive, and prompt along the way. I will be returning!
I was in an accident one week before I was supposed to move to Oregon. Even with it being toward the end of the week these lovely people check out my car and got her fixed on short notice in time for me to get out of AZ. They even topped off my oils free of charge for me, knowing I had a long trip. Great prices, great service.
These guys did a very job to repair the body of my Dodge Dakota pickup, which had tail end damage from a parking lot collision. The owner was very straightforward and honest and worked with my concerns. Workmanship was very good. I waited 2 months to write this review to make sure the work was showing resilience.
Rip off! If you would have told me a complete cost, I may have gotten it done. You told me it would cost another approx $360 and then most likely more repairs after that. Im sure this isnt the first time youve seen this problem. I feel that I was being led on for more money. If you knew what you were doing, you could have given me a total cost up front.
Would come here again. Got a new set tires for my Prius and they checked the alignment. Was in and out the same day.
Ok so the first time I was there was when I had to get $1500 worth of stuff done and honestly it seems like just a regular car shop but PAUL is just a homie now. Very accommodating when I call him (my car is basically falling a part lol). The people who work there don’t treat me any different because I’m a woman or poc which has been my experience at other places. Also, they are always happy to call my mom and explain things to her (I’m a color student) which makes communication a lot easier.
Paul is such a nice and humorous guy plus his accent is amazing haha! He got my car taken care of extremely quickly and the price couldn’t have been better. This is definitely the best car shop I have ever been to and from now on, they’ll always be my go-to. :)
Paul is a superstar..he even gave me a lift to work and back...this is the only place i will do future business with there top notch!
I needed a diagnose on my truck. And my truck was a bit older so you couldnt just plug a scanner to it. They were able to find the exact problem. I usually do my own work to my vehicle and they were understanding. They recommended brands of parts to buy. Most mechanics dont understand when you want just a diagnoses but they did!!
I love The Car Shop! I have taken my car there at least 1/2 a dozen times and they are always super quick and are reasonably priced. Pauly is a super good dude and very accommodating. I am always happy with their service.
These guys are great! My car broke down across the street and they literally ran over there to check it out, towed it over to the shop, and had the best attitudes throughout - even though it meant they were staying past closing time! My car was done fast and service was fantastic. Thanks guys!
I have three vehicles that the Car Shop has been taking care of for many years. I appreciate their honesty and professionalism when it comes to car repairs. I have and will continue to recommend them to my family, friends and associates.Cars are fickle, and no one can be perfect every time. I had an issue one time and they acknowledged it, stepped up and corrected it and that earned my business. I live in Mesa and go out of my way to have them service my vehicles in Tempe. It is less convenient for me but well worth it. Honest mechanics are hard to find. You have them here!
I HIGHLY recommend this place. They get her done without the BS.
Youre in good hands here, they went above and beyond what I expected. Diagnosing everything I expected to what I had no idea about! Love these guys! Hook line and sinker! Just dont expect a miracle if your vehicle is older than dirt! I have an f-150 with 270,000 miles It runs like a top now! Thank you Paul Thank you Ryan!
I try to do all my own car work. I could not find an AC leak myself. They were able to find it for a very reasonable diagnostic fee and the person who diagnosed it took the time to show me the exact location. Blowing ice cold air after a quick fix. They were quick and priced fairly.
The Car Shop quickly diagnosed the issues with my vehicle and mapped out a plan for getting it back to where it needed to be. They fixed my car quickly, and the cost was very reasonable. Their staff is highly professional, and treated me with courtesy and respect. I would definitely recommend the car shop to family and friends.
These people are extremely honest and professional. They help me out everytime I come in a super reasonable and speedy way. Highly recommend.
These guys were awesome! Got my oil changed and tire patched in a timely manner and for a great price. Also had an issue after the service and was able to call the shop and they helped me out over the phone! Will definitley be returning when I need anything done
The Car Shop, and Paul especially, as usual, provided me with excellent service. Id been told repeatedly that my aging Jeep wasnt worth repairing. Id also been told by 3 or 4 other mechanics that I had a rear main seal leak, and they were advising to not bother repairing it because Id likely need a new engine soon (Jeep has 220K+ miles on it). The Car Shop found that the primary leak was not in the rear main seal at all, and that my engine still sounded and pressure tested just fine and that it was worth fixing the leak. Its been over 2 weeks, and I havent lost a drop of oil. The Jeep is running better than ever (we did some other work as well, such as replacing the engine and transmission mounts). They also fixed an issue with the Jeep failing emissions, and handled taking it back through for me and getting it to pass. I have always found The Car Shop to be fair, straight forward, and honest. Paul worked with me patiently to come up with a repair plan I could afford, helping me prioritize which repairs were most important and which could wait. And, my personal favorite aspect of working with Paul: he didnt talk down to me. Ive had many mechanics be dismissive or unwilling to explain, or even get offended at me questioning them—presumably because Im a woman (or maybe because Im not a mechanic). That has never happened to me dealing with Paul. He speaks to me respectfully and recognizes my cognitive ability. That goes a LONG way with me. (Especially since Im the type of woman to change my own oil, or replace my own ignition coil, and I dont at all care to be treated like I wouldnt understand mechanical issues.) I would and have highly recommended The Car Shop to friends and family.
Paul at the car shop got me in quickly, was very professional and personable. I did not have to wait long and they did an excellent job. I was thankful to be well cared for without great cost. Thank again. This is the place to go!
I have known of The Car Shop since 2000 when it was my employers (Sonora Quest) fleet service. I have been taking my cars here for service and repairs for the last ten years. Always treated fairly and professionally. Everyone is courteous and friendly, especially Paul and Tom. Never had a problem, and, I know if I did, they would be quick to rectify it.
Really close to my house which is convenient. I took my charger in to have the brakes and a weird clicking sound checked out. They found the problem to both issues and replaced the rear brake pads for a quality price. My car sounds great so far. They are nice and have a sense of humor and the mechanics are definitely knowledgeable. I will be taking my car back for future needs.
When I moved to Tempe in July of 2013 I looked through AAA recommended shops and The Car Shop was closest to my house. I am thankful this was the closest one! They have been awesome. From oil changes to fixing my broken automatic window, they have always given me a fair price and explained the work that was done. I drop off my car early without an appointment for oil changes and its typically ready within a few hours. They are also really nice. I highly recommend them.
This auto shop is my go-to for any car needs. They dont do body work, because they concentrate on the internal workings of your vehicle. These guys are honest, fair, and prompt. Brought my car in at 9am for a thermostat issue and had it back fixed at 2pm the same day!
Honest work with an honest price. Had a great first experience with The Car Shop. I really dont plan on going anywhere else to get work done to my car.
These guys are great. They have wonderful people working for them. They are super fast and do professional work. Their prices are also extremely reasonable. This is a good honest company to deal with. We have used them for several years and have always been very happy with their work.
I can always trust Ill get the best service, high quality parts, and best price for the parts. The employees have always been gracious and go above and beyond expectations. If anything goes wrong I know I can call them directly and everything will be taken care of. Go to The Car Shop!!!!
The Car Shop is by far the best place I have ever taken my car. My experience is stellar every time. I also feel that I am always paying a fair price for my services. There is something about the staff that just puts me at ease, and Paul is the bomb.
Fantastic shop! These guys all know what their doing here. All mechanics are equally skilled on all vehicles and engine type. I have a gas and diesel and been going to these guys for a long time, they have repaired everything that has gone south. Great job guys!
I sure love The Car Shop! My little girl loves getting our oil changed because she gets to see the cute dog Nigel and eat some candy from the vending machine! Thanks for the speedy and reliable service!
Got my oil change at the New Victory Lane on the 260 Hwy Payson Great Job !
Paul and crew have been nothing but amazing to us. We service all of our work vehicles and personal vehicles at the shop. They have always been fair and honest. I cantwgive enough praises to how amazing these guys are and how great their work is! I have been picked up and dropped off by numerous employees and all have been respectful and quite delightful.
I who tried to fix the battery cables and Terminals and connections myself, and boy was that a mistake. went to the grocery store and came out and wouldnt start so I called the car shop and they had a tow truck to my location within an hour, and half the price of all the other 5 tow trucks I called telling me it would be 3-4-5 hours. they were very professional the driver was nice and I would definitely use them again and would recommend them to family friends and anyone else that needs a good mechanic great customer service - thanks again guys good work.Rob @ I CLEAN CARPETS
I was having problems with my 1999 BMW 328i and was visiting from California....you never know who to trust in the auto business weve all had our nightmare stories to tell. With that said, I was totally at ease with the gentlemen from The Car Shop from the first minute in the shop. They were good explaining things to me and even showing me on my car what they were doing. Big Paul, with I believe to be a charming New Zealand accent, was awesome, and Ken the mechanic did a bang up job on my car, I come to Phoenix a lot so they will be seeing me again. I trust them 100 percent and I dont trust too many mechanics.
I have been a Service & Construction Contractor for many years & have experienced a WIDE array of automotive fleet issues ranging from regularly scheduled & EMERGENCY BREAKDOWNS......The Car Shop has responded to our needs in all instances to meet & exceed our expectations.I have known Len for many years, he has always striven to do GOOD work and treat people FAIR! It is apparent he has instilled this same philosophy in his organization & surrounded himself with GREAT people to deliver the same service & treatment to customers that he espouses to. Hats Off to Len & Crew, Well Done!!!
Best techs. Best customer service. Knowledgeable staff with ability to help determine safety needed items and items that can wait when working with a tight single working parent budget. Ryan is the man! Helped me even with getting safely to The Car Shop. Highly recommend this mechanic shop!
Great experience at The Car Shop. Ive taken my vehicle there multiple times over the years for both routine oil changes as well as other issues. Excellent service all around, quality work, and great customer service.
The Car Shop is wonderful. So knowledgeable, efficient and trustworthy. We been using the shop for years and would strongly recommend it to everyone.
My wife was rear ended in a car accident. We brought it to the car Shop. They worked with our insurance company. They were awesome in how quickly they repaired the car. The car looks great..They even buffed our headlights. My wife is very happy with how the car turned out. I would recommend the car Shop to my friends.
I love The Car Shop. Always great service and fairly priced. They do excellent work consistently. They manage to maintain a relationship that is both personal and professional - a quality that is rare these days. Would recommend them to anyone. Ask for Paul, hes one of the best!
I went in for an oil change the other morning and was in and out within 45 min! Very friendly staff and quick service
I went to The Car Shop for just a routine oil change and got the help I needed for a very good price. One of the employees named Paul was very friendly and informative on what theyd be doing. Id be happy to give my business to them in the future.
The five stars I gave them is well deserved. It was Sunday, 11:30 at night when my fuel pump decided to give up after trying to pass a semi coming off the 10 to my exit. Called Paul the next morning to let him know my truck was coming. When my truck was at The Car Shop, I explained to Paul what happened. Initially, I was told it wasnt going to be until the next day that my truck was going to be ready so I was prepared to get a rental and even made reservations. At about 4:45 Paul called me to let me know my truck was ready with a new fuel pump. These guys have work on all my vehicles and will not hesitate to use then again. They are that awesome.
Dave was very friendly, helpful, and surprisingly funny. Ask him about his extrovert accountant joke! :) I thought my car needed an $80 alignment. Dave said it didnt and fixed the problem for $15. I definitely will come back!
The service is extremely fast, kind, and above all honest (Paul was the name of the mechanic who worked with me). I have never felt more comfortable leaving my car to a mechanic before! Plus, theyre local. Definitely worth checking out next time you need maintenance!
Amazing service from all employees!! 🙌 They are the best team I have ever worked with for car repairs ! Their kindness and efficiency to get the job done is outstanding ! My car has found a new home!
The only shop I trust my car with. Just good, honest guys.
Ive been using this shop for over 10 years. They are professional, fast and honest. There is frequent communication from the time you drop off your vehicle until you pick it up. I have referred several of my friends here and they have been pleased. I read the 1-star reviews and I think that most of those folks are just upset that car repairs can be expensive. The guys at The Car Shop would never do any unnecessary repairs.
They tell you straight up what needs to be done and the prices are fair. The Car Shop crew has been taking care of my Dodge magnum for years. Fast, courteous and knowledgeable. I always bring my car here and I recommend these guys to those that need it.
Always take care of our cars in a trustworthy manner. Affordable, quality work without unneeded stress. The only place we go after trying multiple others.
They do a good thorough job.
Honest ShopI have used these guys for years and they have always been upfront and honest about what is needed. When they couldnt fix an emission issue, ended up being a bad part from the dealer, they didnt charge me a dime for any of the work and refunded the original repair to the diagnosis cost.When I thought my car was toast they found it was a warranty issue from the 07 models and i just needed a firmware update and a new battery they even got it started so I could go buy a battery from Auto Zone as I was struggling at that time!
Weve had the Car Shop handle a number of repairs, We know we can trust their opinions about what would work best for our cars. They consistently get it done quickly and Ive never had any problems with parts or work theyve completed. I recommend them to anyone looking for an auto mechanic they can trust.
I highly recommend The Car Shop. They do great work, but more importantly, they are honest and I trust them. They communicate well and look for the best solution while keeping cost in mind. Paul was outstanding.
Great prices, speedy service, and the staff is always beyond friendly.I will continue to recommend this for anyone who needs auto work in Tempe!
As a small town girl living in a big city, finding someone you can trust is a big deal! We have been taking our vehicles to The Car Shop since 2010. Weve had some costly repairs done in addition to routine vehicle maintenance over the years, and weve been taken care of every time. They worked well with our insurance company when my a/c unit lost a battle to some road debris, and the quickness of the repair did not go unnoticed in the middle of July! About 3 years ago we moved to another valley city, but well continue going to The Car Shop to do any work on our vehicles.
Ive been coming here for over a year now and each time Ive been given great service and trustworthy advice. They even had one of their mechanics drive me back to my house when my last car broke down. This place is an easy 5/5.
I have used the car shop for 25+ years and have been a loyal customer because of their honesty and integrity. Their prices are fair and they stand behind what they do and say.Steve W. Tempe
Prior before going to the car shop, I had experienced other mechanics. It seemed like I was always going back and forth for the same issues. I had enough! I was referred by my friend with the same vehicle to The Car Shop. With further research of The Car Shop I was satisfied with their reviews and I wasnt let down. They found several issues with my vehicle as well pervious issues my other mechanic didnt fix. I just wished I would have seen The Car Shop First. They also have several financing options. I already recommend my friends and car Club to Them.
Always so friendly, honest, positive vibes all the way around from everyone there! A hidden gem for sure! I have found my mechanic shop for life👍
It is my first time to do car maintenance in US. The staff is very professional and nice. They did not recommend me to change any parts. It is really a good experience.
Excellent service. Superior quality of work. After several costly attempts to have my car repaired at other shops, the Car Shop was by far the most honest, even saving me more money with the costly repairs. Thank you very much!
Saved me over a grand when my cars dealership told me I had an oil leak. Turns out there was no leak. Thank goodness for these guys!!! Very professional and honest.
I have taken my 2002 Toyota Tacoma to The Car Shop for both routine maintenance and complex repairs. I have been satisfied with the quality and timeliness of both types of service and will continue to be a customer of this shop for as long as I live in the area. It is conveniently located and the customers service is great!
In and out in a week car has been running great. Paul and his staff made it easy as possible. Defitnley going back in the future and highly recommend!
They were really honest and straight forward about the pricing and the work done to my vehicle. I didnt feel pressured to spend more money, They even went out of there way to give me different pricing options to help me save money! If you are an ASU student you can get a discount! 10/10 would recommend
These guys are great. Extremely accommodating with scheduling and do outstanding work. Paul always goes extra mile.
Honest, knowledgeable and very clear when describing the issues with my car.
