They greeted us warmly, took care of everything for the cars in a timely manner, kept us informed the whole time what was happening, electronically sent us all the records, honored our Angie's List coupon without us purchasing anything in advance, and even gave our baby gifts! It was a lovely, unexpected experience.
Description of Work: This delightful family-owned business made getting an oil change fun.

Great service throughout they replaced the starter to my car at a fairly reasonable price. Had no problems with them and they got the job done as I haven't had any problems with my car since. Thanks

I had been pleased with their work on my 1st visit and repair, and gave them a very good review, but now I have a different opinion. They replaced a broken windshield. The first day I drove it in the pouring rain, my windshield wiper fell off and then I discovered the window was not sealed in one corner. I took my car back and they fixed it right away. One time as I was leaving Auto Aid my left hand turn signal was not working so I had to turn around to go right back. They did something to fix it, but didn't tell me there was a problem. I thought something had just gotten disconnected when they were working on my car, but soon after my blinker went out. I always ask them to check the car over for problems. After all the work was completed my car's steering was still making a humming noise, I took it back. They told me it was the power steering pump they had replaced. This happened twice and to their credit they replaced it on guarantee. After replacing the pump the second time and still having the noise, I asked if it wouldn't help to re-bleed the system for air and was told yes, but it was suggested to me, to try a special fluid to flush the system instead, at my cost of $79.97, I was told it might or might not help. it did not help. The last time they changed the pump they used a different company, but my car did not receive a re-bleed. It is better but still makes a noise. The day I picked it up I could still hear the noise, but I was told it was gone. My idle was running high and I had to take it back again. I guess they just do not here these things when test driving. They had my car a long time to repair it, they always keep it a long time. My car is old, but only has 93,000 miles on it, so I understand it does take a little longer to get parts, but not that long, but I didn't want to rush them. I feel if it was a newer car they would get the work done faster. I do appreciate the ride and pickup they offer. After having over $4,500.00 work done on my car since 12/2014 at Auto Aid, one would expect it to run better. The car vibrates when warming up and the idle is still not right. They are very nice but I would prefer the work get's done correctly the 1st time. I have had to take it back so many times. I would only go there now because of the guarantee

After the cost for the engine replacement they offered me multiple other items at parts only and no additional labor cost. The only labor I was charged for beyond the engine replacement was an oil change and some other minor maintenance issue on tire pressures.
Description of Work: Engine replacement, clutch replacement and a few other things I cant remember right now.

They are nice, honest, and clean. You could probably save a little money going elsewhere, but I love their professionalism and great work. Plus, their fast wifi and clean restroom/waiting area really add great value to their business. These guys are my go-to.

I went there for my car's headlight because I saw many good reviews about them and I felt they are nice and good.They checked my car and show me the price that was little expensive. After I paid the price I felt that was not right price, but they asked me to visit and took time to explain why that was expensive and I appreciate it.

Unprofessional and unfriendly. I didn't even get a chance to explain the problem I was experiencing with my transmission. All i wanted was a best and worst case scenario, a rough idea of what might be wrong, based on their experience with similar transmission problems, and a very rough ballpark cost estimates whether it's a minor issue or major one. Of all the providers I've contained on Angie's List this one was the lest helpful and most unfriendly. I'm not going to drive one hour through traffic with a damaged transmission to get answers to simple questions.
Description of Work: Re transmission problem: Provider was unwilling to answer any of my questions over the phone.

They were good went to get an oil change then as they were inspecting it for free they noticed I needed a new air filter so I went right ahead and decided to get it done with. They also noticed that the light in the back needed to be changed we had seen it couple days before but had totally forgot about it good thing they found that too and replaced that as well. The price was not great but ok overall though they helped me big by finding everything and replacing them thanks.

the car is doing good works very well so they did great at getting the job done. They were great other than I felt like it took a little long for what they were doing and the price a little high as well but at least the job was done and I didn't really have any problems with them would probably come back for more of their service.

had to go replace the windshield cause the neighbors kids were playing catch and got our car on the windshield luckily I was just on the way to the car when I saw it happen so i got to see that it was an accident so I didn't make a big deal about it. I had heard about Auto Aid and Rescue trough a friend so that's why I took my car there and it was easy work for them they said they do this often. They rotated and checked the air pressure on the tires for free so that was cool they did a great job so $300 for a a new windshield was easy to pay thank you auto aid and rescue.

They are very pleasant to work with, accommodating, and did all the necessary repairs to put an older car back in working order. I gave them all "A"s, but I must admit that I often have difficulty saying whether a price is fair or not for a service I rarely have done. I did give them an "A" for price, and I do believe the price for what they did was fair. However, it's a blind item for me. In fact, perhaps the rating system for price on Angie's List might need some tweaking, such as the choice of a question mark or "seemed fair". How do I know what the standard price for brakes, plumbing pipe replacement, etc. is supposed to be, when I never have a basis for comparison, and have never had it done before? I recently had major pipe relining in my house. It cost $15,000 - not a small amount. Is that a good price? How can I know? It's not like a pound of apples.
Description of Work: Brakes replaced, etc. Not sure of all the repairs, but was on an old Ford van.

They were excellent. Everybody who helped me they were very attentive and they described what was happening to my car. They showed it to me. They helped me and actually with a flashlight showed me what the problem was. They mentioned that if I want to think about it that I can come back again or decide not to do it or find some place out to go and I just left my car there. My car is working perfect.

Honestly, I've never been to a mechanic even half as good as these guys. They were so friendly and helpful. And, the waiting are for customers was so clean! Most mechanic's garages have a crappy little area with old, dirty seats. This one had a really nice water fountain and a small section for little kids. The bathroom even had one of those Koala Kare fold down changing tables. It's family owned and you can tell they take pride in their garage. I was in and out in 30 min. Best mechanic experience I've ever had.

The experience was fine; it was very good. They did a perfectly good job and the work was done well. The insurance was terrible making arrangements, but this company did a nice job. This was the first time I used them and it came through the insurance company.
