Then we referred my mom, she had the same problem. They fixed something but she still had the same problem. So she had to bring it back twice. Most recently we took our car in to have the tie rod ends fixed. We got he car back with a very very VERY loud noise. We took it back and they denied the issue. At this point we asked for our money back and the owner got aggressive. Additionally they screwed up our lug nuts so we can't get our tires off. So now we have to repay to do their work and fix the lug nuts/bolts they destroyed. They started out ok, but went downhill fast. A shame because at first we thought they were trustworthy. I recommend not taking your chances unless it's something you have time to do two or three times over....

I am an older woman and they could have easily done unnecessary work and I would never have questioned it. Their honesty and consideration for their customers is top notch.

I used my diagnostic tester to try to determine what the problem was. The tester indicated that there was a misfire in one of the cylinders. I finally reached Cruz Auto Repair in the late afternoon. Corey replied back that he could come to the house between 6 & 8 that evening (Sunday). Corey came at about 6:45 and immediately began to diagnose the issue and found that the cylinder had a bad spark plug. We talked about a price and I decided to have Corey change all the plugs. which he did. running a test again, he found that one of the coils was also bad. Since it was late at night, after 8 PM and the auto parts store was closed, we discussed a price and agreed that Corey would come back the next morning with a new replacement coil. Corey came back the next morning and replaced the coil and now the car is working just fine. From the start, Corey showed knowledge of auto repairs, did exactly what he said he would do for the price that he quoted each time. I would highly recommend Cruz Auto Repair for all repairs. Thank you Corey.

The waiting area and bathrooms were spotless, and there were no overwhelming odors or blaring music, which made the environment feel professional and welcoming. As a woman, I always feel a little uneasy walking into automotive shops because it's hard to know what kind of experience you're going to get. That wasn't the case here at all. Pete at the front desk went above and beyond to answer my questions, keep me informed, and make sure I understood what was going on without ever making me feel rushed out silly. I really felt like he genuinely had my back, and really looked out for me. Austin was also great to work with and was friendly, professional, and helpful throughout the process. What stood out most was that I never felt talked down to, pressured, or dismissed. Everyone treated me with respect and kindness, which unfortunately isn't always a given in this industry. If you're a woman who's nervous about taking your vehicle to a repair shop, I would absolutely recommend giving this place a try. They made what could have been an intimidating experience feel easy and welcoming, and that's worth a lot. I will be continuing to use this shop for any and all auto needs going forward, I'm glad I found them.
