I have been to Complete Auto Repair a few times in the last year for an oil change, to repair my car’s a/c, and brake pads. The turnaround time and customer service has always been great, but I’ve been surprised each time by the price of each service. For example, when my a/c stopped blowing cool air, I brought it to them to see if something was wrong or if the freon just needed to be replenished. They said I should replace my entire a/c system for nearly $3,000 because there was “shrapnel” throughout the system which could keep the system from working effectively. I asked them to just do the freon, and the a/c has been working fine since. This past week my car was having trouble starting, so I brought it to them and they said that the starter was bad and the “battery harness” needed to be replaced because it was corroded, and quoted me $970 for the parts and labor. I asked if I could just get the starter replaced, and they said that wouldn’t be possible. I called another mechanic I trust and he couldn’t understand why it would possibly cost that much. I called another mechanic down the road and they said they could do the same work for $450. I went and got my car from Complete Auto Repair, cleaned the cables and battery terminals, and replaced the starter myself for $200. They ended up charging me $70 for the diagnostic, which seemed highly overpriced. For example, to rule out if it was the battery, I went to Batteries Plus, and a guy there used a diagnostic tool on the battery and alternator to help me narrow it down to the starter. It took about 5 minutes, and he did it for free. Long story short, I won’t be back to Complete Auto Repair. The work they’ve done on my car has been fine for the most part (a jitter I was getting around 65-70 mph got worse after I took my car in to get the brake pads replaced, and they said they were unable to replicate the jitter in a test drive), and it seems like they’ll always try to get you to pay for more than is necessary. They’ve always been friendly and I appreciate that, but I feel like I can’t trust their pricing or assessment of what is actually necessary to fix a problem anymore.

Find yourself a reputable mechanic. I used to like these guys and thought they treated me well. I've done work on my own cars in the past but have been busy the last couple years, so I have brought my cars here. I dropped my car with them over the weekend after having battery issues. I had AutoZone test the alternator and they said it is bad. I asked these guys to look at the alternator and let me know what they think. They get back to me saying the alternator is fine but that I have two leaks that need fixed and they will cost around $1000 each and they wanted to do an "induction cleaning service" for $220. I called my uncle who has been a mechanic for over 45 years. He laughed at their report and said these guys are trying to pull a fast one. None of the work they are suggesting needs done is present on the car. The supposed picture they took doesn't look like the leak they are claiming. I called them to pick up the car and they charged me $70 for the inspection. Louis said that was "half price." I have never had a reputable mechanic charge me when I have asked them to look at something for me. Any other mechanic would've looked at the alternator, called it good, and asked me to pick it up. I'll be looking for a new mechanic. Also, checked the fluid levels when I got it home. Fluids are all good. So much for a leak.

Quick and speedy service, I got four new tires and my oil changed in less than 24 hours. As a female, it was nice to not feel like I was being taken advantage of. They didn’t try to talk me into any other services which I very much appreciated. Services: Oil change, Tires

I had a great experience with Complete Auto Repair. Richard, I believe the owner, was knowledgeable, explanative of the problems, and most importantly honest about the options. Everyone else I talked to seemed friendly and all the other customers seemed happy with their experience also. Thanks again, Matt Services: Auto exhaust system repair, Vehicle safety inspection, Electrical repair

Someone tried to steal my car causing damage to the ignition. My car was repaired fully and quickly. This unfortunate experience was made slightly easier. They were even able to recommend a great tow company. I was very happy with their services.
