Today was 3rd time I've used their services over a year (truck 20 yrs old) and EXTREMELY pleased every time! I 1st started using them because they are close to my house but now I won't consider using any other repair shop. Dealing with Dawn, their front service writer, is a pleasure! Last time they gave me a ride home after dropping off AND delivered truck back to me when done because it was raining. Honest and thorough!

It went excellent. Dawne worked with us to get the car back in a timely manner since we are a one car family. She kept us informed as the repairs were underway and got authorization from us before preforming extra work that was found to be needed. The mechanic, Eric, was great. He gave us his thoughts before the work started and sent us pictures and video of the problems he found. He gave us recommendations on what work was important and alternatives on other issues he found. The whole shop was professional, warm and attentive. I never got the impression that they were trying to sell repair jobs, just fix what needed to be fixed. I'll definitely return in the future.
Description of Work: I had an electrical problem with my A/C and an airbag sensor alert.

They did a 40,000 mile oil change and the like. They are a little expensive. They also replaced a couple of struts on the front of the car.

It was great. I am not in that location any more. They did a real good job. I would use them again if I was there. Their accuracy was the think that stood out. They quoted me a price and that was what they charged me. I was happy with them. The price was a little high but still adequate. They were very professional.

They were beyond professional, beyond accommodating and their work is impeccable. They were a little expensive than others but the quality of the repair was better than I would have got from the cheaper price. They told me exactly what it would cost.
Description of Work: They changed my rack and pinion and gave me a tune up. They gave me an overall vehicle well check that I should put on my horizon for future service. I had an oil change, whole servicing, wheel alignment and overall well check.

We were looking for an honest auto repair service provider so we decided to try Angie's List. Our decision was quite easy when we saw all of the positive reviews for Moon Valley Auto Care. What a great service they give here! I dropped my wife at work and went straight there so I could be in line early as we needed our car back that evening. Tom gave me a ride home which was great. Dawn called me shortly with suggestions for my work and for the go ahead to start. She called me a few short hours later and said she would come get me as it was done. Quality of work is excellent, prices are very fair and the people couldn't be nicer. You instantly get the feeling that they are going to take care of you and not give the run around. I'm sure some will know that treatment. Well put your mind at ease here. They come across as honest and fair right away and will look out for your best interest. I've already set up a follow up appointment. Give them a try, you'll be glad you did.

Excellent: we took our '01 diesel 2500 pickup to them with a problem with the air. They fixed the problem within 24 hours. We asked for a diesel oil change, Dawn did it at same price as we had been paying for at a Quick Oil Change outfit. Good service, friendly, did what needed to be done in time frame they said it would be done. We will use them again, if for nothing else other than they were honest, did what they said they would do on a timely basis at a fair price.

Once my A/C went out I began calling several shops to estimate how much replacing my entire system would cost me. After speaking to 5 different places ranging in price from $950 to $1900 I made one more final call to Moon Valley Motor Care. A very polite and professional lady named Dawn answered the phone in which her estimate was the second lowest estimate I received. So why did I do business with Dawn instead of the company with the lowest estimate? Because Dawn simply had the best customer service I've heard in some time. I work for a Fortune 500 company in which our business solely revolves around the phones (sales/customer service) and she had me sold on her company within the first 5 minutes of our conversation. They got my car in ASAP and had me back on the road after only 1 day. This is a family owned/operated business that really cares about the work they perform and the customers who bring them in. I would recommend their service to any of my family, friends and employees should they ever need work done in the future.

I bought an Angie's List deal for my son's car for $17 for an oil change and tire rotation. They told him that his car needed a whole litany of additional work. He did not purchase the additional work. I was a bit suspicious of the extra work they suggested.

Response from Moon Valley Motor Care
[member name removed] I wanted to respond to your statements re: "litany of work that we suggested" on your sons 04 chevy impala since you weren't actually here when we inspected his car. We simply inspect EVERY car that comes into our shop to prevent our customers any breakdowns in future, even if it's a simple oil change. Upon inspection of his car, we mentioned his oil level was significantly low due to the multiple oil leaks he had (which isn't uncommon for an older car such as his) but mainly was low due to the last oil change being over 12443 miles ago! That's a really long time. The other things we mentioned were 2 fluid flushes (power steering and brake fluids were black, not red like they should be) along with the serpentine belt which was really cracked and that runs all of his power and steering and cooling systems at once, so if that belt breaks he would get stuck. His air filter was also extremely dirty and the battery was weak (which he said was under warranty) but it was part of the inspection too and it's a good thing we did look further or he would have quite possibly gotten stuck because of the battery. We were simply recommending those things ( which only totaled $412) We even offered to plug the nail in his tire for free which he declined as well. But I remember your son and his car and I didn't think that us recommending those earlier mentioned items to prevent a break down or just preventative maintenance warranted a C rating under professionalism. And you also gave us a C for price which baffled me too because I'm not sure where else you could get an oil change, tire rotation, battery and charging system check, free tire repair and complete inspection and recommendations for $17.95. We have been in business over 20 yrs and I value our customers opinions and comments because that helps us to improve on things, but I really wish you would have called me to discuss his car if you had any questions or concerns rather than giving us that rating. :-( I know he drove all the way from Tempe to our shop because this is an amazing coupon. Thank you for your comments.

Found problem quickly. Gave me an estimate that was close to what an estimator for car repairs said it should cost. Gave me written estimates of the other repairs needed and these prices will remain until I have the work done. Very professional and knowledgeable about Mercedes Benz cars. Said they would help me keep it running till it has 200,000 miles. We really liked them and will be returning with our other car for future maintenance and repairs.

I called Moon Valley Motor Care in regards to my brother's 1999 Honda Accord LX. He needed to have the car's power steering pressure hose replace due to leakage coming from the part. I had the car evaluated and diagnose by another repair shop a few days prior to taking it to Moon Valley Motor Care. The repair shop (who shall remain nameless) gave me and my brother a very expensive quote (about $500) to replace the pressure hose and power steering fluid. I then went to Angie's List website and found Moon Valley Motor Care and was impressed by good reviews and overall rating by Angie's List. I decided to give them a call. And I am so happy I did. When I called the shop I spoke to Dawn, who I found out was the owner. I explain to her the issue with the car. I told her the car had already been diagnose by another repair shop. She gave me an estimate of $293 without tax. Much lower than what the other repair shop quoted my brother. I informed my brother and he brought his car to them the next day. They worked on the car and a reasonable amount of time and the amount of the final invoice was very close to the quote Dawn gave me the day before. They didn't try to "upsell" my brother on unnecessary repair work and they only did the work that was asked of them. Overall I was very please with their service and my brother was very please as well.

As always, consistently good. Until, this person walks in & slams a car part down on Dawn's desk! He begins screaming that he wants his $ back.Dawn begins trying to help determine how to help him, and his attitude escalates to using profanity, arm and hand gestures as well! I've had our vehicles serviced by Moon Valley Motor Care for more than18 years, and Dawn and her mechanics have bailed us out of more than one situation that could have been a disaster anywhere else! This is a family operation that has earned the loyalty of all my neighbors, friends, business associates and the mailman. The scene that I was witness to yesterday really frightened me-- this person became so verbally abusive that one of the men in the shop had to ask him to leave! No civilized individual behaves like this, and especially to Dawn. Moon Valley motor care represents everything good about America. Family, Fairness,and Faith. Shamefully, some miscreants can use this format to vent their anger-- not truth, I know many good neighbors in Moon Valley who love this shop as much as I do. Most Sincerely, Elizabeth(cannot use my last name out of fear)

They performed a pressure test and stated they figured it was a blown head gasket and it would be about $2500 for a new head gasket to $7500 for a new engine. We had the truck towed to a friends shop in tucson who confirmed all it needed was a new termistate for $40.00

I was quite pleased with them. I had purchased a big deal and I got the service package at a reasonable rate. There was a diagnostic fee, but they were incredibly helpful in doing that, they had to do a lot more than they initially had to do. I got several problems solved and I don't think I spent more money than I would have. My experiences there were nothing but productive. When I first found them on Angie's List and purchased a big deal, they were quite responsive and took me in a very short time. It was very easy to get an appointment and to get the car in. They were professional. I gave them a problem that they were not expecting to deal with and so it took a little longer for them to fix than they could have, but they had no idea what they were going to deal. It took me a couple of trips to get that sorted out, but I don't hold that against them. They were very professional. If I was to go back to Arizona, they would be my go to people.
Description of Work: I used Moon Valley Motor Care. They did a comprehensive tune up, they checked the tires, the alignment, the brakes and that sort of thing. I had them go ahead and change my oil and I was having problems with a computer code and they helped me with that.
