Carl's ex-aerospace, so intellectual aspect of what needs be done, gets done, before wrenching begins, before the car gets rolled, into the stall. Carl and I went back 'n forth two months trading thoughts, hashing it out, somewhat complicated endeavor, r134a retrofit on a vintage supercharged MR2 (e.g., doesn't share principle A/C components with any other Toyota). Crux of our dilemma, that parts ran out on this vehicle, 20 years ago, we had to make due with what we had. But, Carl still has all the old equipment to service R12! Dozens of specialty shops petrified, scared to death to even touch the thing, even the local Toyota dealership here in Lancaster chickening out, kicking me to the curb, by the time we rolled my AW11 into the stall, Carl had the retrofit wrapped up less than 24 hours, restoring A/C -- to a nearly 40 year old vehicle? If you can believe that? Other reputable shops, having bid-over US$9k to do the retrofit? Threatening to tear the entire car apart? Carl came in, a cinch under US$400 bux, for the retrofit. Can't say enough about the guy, ability to find simple solutions to complex issues. Handy place to go when you've got something involved, complex, other lilly-livered shops are afraid touch -

WARNING this is how CARL treats FRONTLINE WORKERS WHO HAVE BEEN HIS CUSTOMER FOR 10 YRS PLUS!!!!…read more If you want to be ripped off this is the place for you! Carl is a liar and a cheat! ( he will quote you one price then charge you another,) He charged a frontline worker over 110% of what a gas cap costs (Carquest price $13.99/ Carl's price $31.73), 200% for new rotors( Carquest price $73.99 X 2 = 147 .98/ Carl's price 149 .18 for each front rotor = $298.36 for both) and 150% for new brake pad kit( Carquest price $57.99/ Carl's price $133.63) charged $500 for parts that cost $258.61 (total)according to carquest the auto parts service Carl utilizes! For my brothers and sisters who don't know, just like I didn't, Carquest is the autoparts service Carl utilizes for his automotive needs. Now if you do decide to use carl as your mechanic, I emphatically stress (PRIOR TO PAYMENT) identifying the item numbers on your receipt then go on the Carquest site to verify this man is not cheating you! (BECAUSE HE WILL of you are a woman or a layman to automotive machanics!!!!) Do it in front of him that way you can see the look on his face when he tries to manipulate you! Thank You for Cheating a loyal and long time client Carl (10 yrs plus) a client who trusted and valued the services you provide. Your greed has eroded my trust and confidence not only in your work but your ethics as a human being. We are all struggling through this pandemic financially, mentally, and especially Spiritually. This does not Grant you the right to rip your unsuspecting longtime clients off because they trust you. I mean one of the reasons I come to you is because I know that you are a good mechanic and believed that you were an honest man and business owner, however your actions dictate you dont care and you are willing to rip off your long standing customers to make a buck! (FRONTLINE WORKERS) DUDE THATS LOW BRO! So with that said; I strongly implore anybody seeking car service do not utilize Yucca Avenue car service owned by CARL. HE WILL RIP YOU OFF WITH A SMILE AND A HANDSHAKE!!!!!!! I almost forgot Carl decided to add injury to insult this by makìng it seem as though he was doing a favor buy acting like he gave a 50% discount on the labor he charged! Lol who does that (Thats any automotive businesses bread and butter!! )? A LIAR AND A CHEAT WHO WANTS YOU TO THINK he IS AN HONEST BUSINESSMAN!!!! 10 YRS CARL THANKS!! I WONDER HOW LONG HE HAS BEEN DOING THIS TO HIS CUSTOMERS!

Steve Wachala was our salesman and he is absolute perfection! My husband is disabled and I had some…read morevery specific needs. I needed a car with a back-end low enough that I could load a wheelchair. The Ascent was too high for me and the Outback was perfect. Also, I needed the cooling seats due to my husband's illness and his inability to regulate his body temperature. And if that was not enough requests, I wanted a used car. Steve knew that the 2022 Outbacks had the cooling seats and all the driver assists that I wanted. He started looking at inventory in October 2025 and kept me appraised of what he found. He never quit looking for the perfect car for. Today, August 3, 2026, we found the perfect 2022 Subaru Outback Touring model with only 15,285 miles. Steve's dedication and patience to find the perfect car for me goes above and beyond any salesman! Our current 2017 Subaru Outback has 230,000 miles. We have been very pleased with Trust Antelope Valley Subaru from sales to service and definitely recommend them. And of course, if you are in the market, request Steve Wachala!

If you're looking for a scenic 4-hour round-trip road adventure fueled by false promises, Trust…read moreAntelope Valley Subaru (TAVS) has you covered. If you're actually looking to buy a car? Maybe pack snacks... and a map to a reputable Subaru dealer. My wife spent a week coordinating with a sales rep (Noe) about a specific vehicle. We confirmed the car, confirmed the appointment, confirmed the price was "negotiable," and committed most of our Saturday to drive 60 miles each way. You know -- normal things people do when they expect a dealership to be, well... honest. Am I the only one that finds it laughable that they chose "Trust" as part of the dealership name? Kinda like saying a cactus is cuddly! Here's how the dishonesty ramped up... minutes before our appointment (aka when we're basically pulling into the parking lot), we get a message: "Oh, the car isn't available for purchase yet -- it hasn't completed certification." Interesting timing, considering the car has been sitting in their inventory for over a month. Priorities I guess? But wait, the fun continues! We arrive, and suddenly Noe is nowhere to be found. Instead, we're handed off to another rep, Nathan Houston. Classic dealership relay race baton pass. Nathan was friendly enough while showing us the car, but when it came time to discuss price, the story changed so fast it gave us pro level whiplash! * The "negotiable" price? Suddenly not negotiable. ( I know shocking!) * The online price? Apparently the "absolute lowest"... except when they tried to quote us a higher price. * The explanation? Some mysterious documents claiming the dealership paid more than the advertised price (apparently they are a charity... disguised as a Subaru dealership). The convenient sales rep switch meant Houston could simply shrug and say he knew nothing about prior conversations. It felt less like buying a car and more like watching a live demonstration of "Bait & Switch 101." Or "Watching a masterclass in creative truth telling." Look, I get that dealerships still love the classic "Let me talk to my manager" routine. That's practically tradition. But the full bait-and-switch playbook in 2026? That's some retro dishonesty I didn't expect from a Subaru dealer. Given TAVS's already struggling online ratings, I'd hoped for better. Instead, we got a reminder that not all dealerships have moved past the old-school tactics. Bottom line: If you enjoy long drives, last-minute surprises, and pricing that changes depending on which salesperson you talk to -- TAVS might be your place. If you value transparency, honesty, and not wasting half your Saturday... look elsewhere. Don't take my word for it... check the VERIFIED reviews here.

Not only that, they took almost a week to get the undershield even though the vendor told me that already delivered the parts needed.
