Short version: - Charged $600 for a trunk water leak fix…read morethey couldn't end up fixing after bringing it in THREE times. I had to argue for an HOUR to get half that money back. - They recommended an oil change service I didn't need (I had just changed it myself the previous week). - Worst of all, a very rude snarky condescending front desk guy. Long version: Took it in for a trunk water leak. We showed them where the water trail was as far as we could see. Apparently, they don't listen cause when I got it back and tested it, leak was still there. All they did was clean out the most common cause of leaks (clogged sunroof drain valve) and called it good. I doubt they tried to diagnose before and test afterwards to minimize how much time they spend on it. They didn't even bother spending the time to vacuum all the sunroof debris that dropped onto the car seats. We had to brush that off ourselves before sitting down. Took it back to them and we did this 2 more times but they still weren't able to fix the requested leak. I asked for a refund and spent an HOUR arguing with the front desk guy that it's unfair I pay $600 and the original leak I showed them still occurs. Not to mention the collosal waste of time for 2 people to make 6 trips to drop off and pick the car up. The rude guy working the front desk finally agreed to give half the money back. The worst part about the whole experience was the snarky condescening guy who works the front desk. My first interaction with him was when I picked up the car the first time: "I'm here to pick up the civic with the leak". His response was a snarky "Well we have lots of civics..." He could've been professional and just asked "What's the name under?" His attitude worsened when I asked too many questions about why he had recommended an oil change I didn't need (I had just changed it myself and it was the first time driving it afterwards). That happened the first time we picked up the card. And during the 1 hour argument that happened on the 3rd time picking up the car, he's yelling and interrupting me and halfway through the hour puts on a calm professional voice once another customer walks in the room. This business could use a better person to represent themselves to their customers.

I brought my Volvo to Larry's after a friend's recommendation, hoping for expert local service…read more Unfortunately, I left $1,500 poorer with the exact same issue I started with. They initially replaced the battery (at premium prices), but the car died again two days later. After towing it back, they kept it for a week with no updates, eventually charging me nearly $1,000 in labor just to "tighten cables" and drive it around town. When the issue returned again a few days later, I gave up and went to the dealership. They fixed it same-day, and it hasn't stalled since. I love supporting local shops, but save your money and go elsewhere unless you only need a basic oil change.

Barely made it there before it got flat, but I did. They checked it out, plugged it, and filled the air back up in the tire. They didn't charge me for the temporary repair, which was really kind of them. Was able to get my tires replaced a few weeks later somewhere else and the plug had no problems until then. Another time I came to get my car serviced, and that also was pretty quick and also went well! Forget how much it was but it was pretty standard compared to other places. I would trust them with any and all of my car service needs!

Imagine my daughter's horror: I just bought her a used, pretty little car with AWD. She was in love at first sight. I had it checked out with my SoCal mechanic and everything was great. All of the services were done at a local Audi dealer on time every time... did I mention from the Audi dealer? But within a week of transporting the car to her an alert screams "Switch Off Engine! The oil pressure is low!" She calls crying as she driving home from work saying she didn't do anything wrong but the alert tells her to stop driving immediately. I desperately tried to find a reputable mechanic over the weekend - out of state - with no knowledge of the city but thankfully Yelp led me to Steve. He was quick to respond and even allowed her to come that very morning despite his loaded schedule. He diagnosed her car, sent me texts of each inspection check he performed (with pictures) using an app of some sort that was very detailed. He discovered the problem was a broken solenoid bolt that caused the oil leak; replaced it; added new oil; drove it around to check the oil pressure; rechecked any faulty codes and called me to tell me my daughter's car is all fixed.... ... Wait for it ... The bill was just a fraction of the costs I thought I might have a pay. He could have said it was a gasket leak, or worse engine damage, etc. I wouldn't know and couldn't know but he was thorough, honest, and so impressively great professional. I love cars, but I'm not a mechanic and he saved me. He saved my dad-cred, saved me time, energy and money. I'm my daughter's hero but he's my mechanic hero. I will never send my daughter anywhere else. Everyone else in Seattle should do the same. Thanks Steve.

A couple hours later I got a message with an estimate for $3k. They called right away, and I tried to decline some items like spark plugs but was told I would need to do them due to the nature of the repair even though the tech mentioned them as maintenance items. I would highly recommend to not approve ANYTHING with them on the phone and ask for a written estimate. Make sure to take screenshots because they hide estimates after you approve them. Also check what the inspection report says rather than the person on the phone trying to upsale you. They promised car same day but it wasn't ready until 2 days later. When I got the car back, something their own inspection report flagged as needing replacement due to oil residue was not replaced (Coolant Reservoir). Look at image below. IMO if you are going to charge $3k to do a bunch of work on the cooling system and coolant you should at least replace a $20 part (Or at the very least clean it) otherwise it will re-contaminate the cooling system all over again. A part they flagged as leaking and paid to fix, is just leaking again. I called 10 mins after I got the car back and they said it was fine. I kept mentioning my road trip to Vegas and they kept clearing me to drive out there. A week later my car overheated again. It was misdiagnosed, the whole time it was the radiator fan that failed, so the $3K of work was unnecessary. I'd also look at other public reviews including SureCritic and BBB Listings.
