Customer service with the front and with the rest of the staff was professional, quick, and very thorough. An oil change with tire rotation and multi-inspection roughly took about 45mins.

JiffyLube on 72nd messed up the transmission with a mere transmission fluid change. The transmission now won't shift through the gears when starting / stopping. I have to manually shift. A few weeks ago JL replace the battery; now the engine struggles over a couple of minutes to start. "Convenience" at JL is expensive in terms of time & money. : /

They are unreliable and dishonest. I brought my car in for an engine check light and come to find…read moreout that the detected code is P0456 (small EVAP leak detected present). After 2-3 hours of testing, the report says no leak is detected, and they "suspect" that "EVAP pump module has failed internally", so they need to replace my entire EVAP canister assembly with pump module =))), how absurd. And the whole thing cost $2k for a minor issue with code P0456. I called in and took my car home, while paying them $200 for diagnostic just to receive an unsure result. If this is a service you would want for your car in 2026 where there are so many better out there, please go ahead.

On a whim, I took a chance on Defiance Auto after finding him on Yelp in Ruston -- a young MOBILE MECHANIC. The gods must've been smiling, because he turned out to be polite, efficient, knowledgeable, and even took the time to research my unusual issue. Hands down, he's the best mechanic I've ever worked with. His prices were more than fair, too. This young man makes thirty veteran mechanics look like Goober Pyle from Mayberry. All I can say is, "Goooooolllllleeee!" Give this hardworking guy a try. You will not regret it. He will come to Vashon. his name is Mick Svoboda of Defiance Auto (253) 999-8531 Defianceautoworks.com

It's rare to find a quality shop open on weekends these days. While I waited in their comfy lobby, I actually enjoyed chatting with the team. It felt more like catching up with friends than sitting in a mechanic's lobby. They are 100% transparent. Brandon only noted a repair I already knew was coming up and never pressured me to spend more. They truly love what they do and care about their clients. Definitely turning into a regular here!

I was in the middle of a move, which made this so much more difficult One of the issues he came up with a simple solution that doesn't fix it, but it made it better. I have a girlfriend that's younger with two kids that went there to get some help for overfilling her car with oil .., he was amazing with her as well I absolutely adore this guy so kind actually very funny. And very honest. I actually don't trust anybody else to work on my car but him and his crew. When you refer a young, single mother to somebody, you worry a little bit. He is exactly the same way to my friend as well. These guys are just amazing and they're honest and their fair prices.! I just appreciate knowing that I have somebody who will take care of my vehicle! Thank you

I started off with several quotes for a brake job on a 2021 Nissan Sentra. Spencer reached out…read morewith one and after reading his reviews, I chose to work with him. He let me know he was licensed, certified and insured. Once he mentioned this, I did ask a few of the others that sent me a quote if they were and suddenly, they became unresponsive. Spencer took the time to explain what my car needed, the time, and the cost. He updated me every step of the way. I asked him for quotes on a few other things my car will need in the future and again, he provided quotes for each and detailed the process and what his work included. Spencer has my business for life. I have already recommended him to several family members and they are eager to work with him.

I can't comment on mechanic work they do but as for buying an engine for an engine swap they sold me a good product. The guy even helped me with advice when I had questions. I would use them again for another engine but next time I'm going to go with a rebuilt engine instead of a straight import.

The previous work that was done (other shops) on the 4Runner had some mistakes, which he pointed out. He then rated the damage or concerns on what needed to be watched or fixed.

He did fix a suspension squeak that was driving me nuts! And triaged another one that I can fix or repair.
