All 3 cars were spotless and sparkled like diamonds in the sunshine! The Ford truck had been sitting unused for most of my husband's 2 year illness and had actual mold growing on the inside so it was amazing that they could get it so clean. I sold all 3 cars on Craigslist and received much more money than I expected, primarily due to them being so clean.
A few years previously, Pat alerted me to an area of rust under the rear hatchback door of my Matrix and it was repaired free of charge by Toyota just months before the warranty expired. I was very grateful to the shop for that "catch."
The battery on the Ford truck had deteriorated while sitting for long periods and when I went to pick it up, I turned it off and couldn't get it started again. Of course I started to cry, because that was what I did that year...then I was mortified and embarrassed. The guys who work so hard in the shop were very nice, made me laugh, got it running, gave me advice of what to do and sent me on my way. I won't forget that kindness ever.
I have a new car now, a 2014 Nissan Rogue-- it's just about due for a clean-up and I wouldn't take it anywhere else.
"Thank you for taking the time to write this review. Your life journey was something we all felt humbled to have shared with you. Aside from what we do each day for a living, Pat has always led by the fact that we meet people & care for them & their vehicles; sometimes through the entire time they own a vehicle or more. The shop is truly hands-on, always working to do the best possible job for each customer. It is rewarding to know that we have accomplished that....we do try. Thank you again for the kind words, and we look forward to seeing you & your new car sometime this year! Toni"

"We appreciate your bringing your Honda to us and are glad you were happy with our services. We apologize as we know our parking is limited and wish it was better. We will definitely work on that! Hope to see you again."
"Thank you for the review. We appreciate your business in 2013 and 2014, and are glad you are happy with the service. We reviewed the sale since you didn't seem as pleased with that. We stepped outside our norm and did discount the pickup and delivery costs as we didn't shampoo your carpets. You purchased a complete detail for $180 plus P/U and delivery cost. Because complete details are competitively priced, we don't normally do that. Unfortunately, if we begin piecing out the package, it no longer is a "package price" and our customers end up paying more. We always try to work with our customers to provide services that meet their needs. Thank you again and we hope to see you next year or sooner!"
The complete service was professionally done and my car was immaculately cleaned inside and out. My car looks like it did when it originally came out of the showroom. My hat's off to Pat Falconio and his crew for his continued great service and excellent work. My wife and I have been clients of Pat since he had his shop on Aurora Avenue and will continue to be happy customers. I would highly recommend Auto Shine Detail to anyone who wants a detail job that is perfectly done in all respects.
Keep up the good work Pat. Sincerely, Ed and Sally Ramirez
"It was great to see you again. Thank you for your business!"
"Thank you. We are always glad when customers are happy!"
I got a call from Toni at the end of the day that was Jeep was ready for pick up upon my inspection I can only say:
AMAZING!!!!!!!
My 2005 Jeep that has never been garaged, had tons of tree sap on the exterior, scratches all over, moss growing around the windows, completely filthy on the inside looked like it was just driven off the showroom floor! It felt like a completely different Jeep driving home and on the 3 mile drive to my house I decided to keep the 2005 Jeep and not buy a new vehicle. So the $220 I paid for the cleanup saved me $30,000.00. I have a 2004 Honda and I will call to have it detailed.
Worth every penny I paid
"We are so glad you liked the Jeep! Enjoy, and we look forward to the Honda coming in."
"Thank you [Member Name Removed].We at Auto Shine Detail appreciate the time you took to give us a review of your Subaru Forester. We are happy that you liked the detail and the overall service. It was a pleasure to serve you and hope to see you in the future. Thank you Patrick Falconio,owner."
again the friendly folks here out did themselves. after a very long winter in arizona with dust, rain, heat, sun i dropped the 99 camry off for detailing. All work performed & automobile was ready as agreed @ a very reasonable price. The old 99 Toyota Camry almost looks like the day it rolled off the Showroom floor! Please see my original report dated 07/23/2010. THANK YOU PATRICK & CREW
It came out so good i had them do my daughters 2002 honda civic thats never been cleaned in 10 years. 4 years at WSU in pullman and sitting around seattle the last 6 collecting moss, twigs and bird doo. this was a daughters day gift to her. pat & his crew worked extra h****** this one and it's shows, looks great inside & out.
I have a dog boarding business and transport dogs in my Subaru Legacy wagon to and from the dog park. As you can imagine, there is a fair amount of dog hair & dirt that collects everywhere! Even though I cover the seats fur and dirt manage to get into all the little crevices. Auto Shine has been great about ridding the car of fur and even eliminating the doggie smell from having so many dogs in the car.
I occasionally have the outside cleaned and the results are fantastic.
Patrick and his team are always respectful and easy to communicate with. Their work is always excellent!
"Thank you Customer for being a long time and loyal customer. And, for all the referrals you send our way. It's customers like you that keep us going!"
