A week and a half ago, I pulled up to a parking space and saw steam coming out from under the hood…read moreof my car. Checking under the hood, I located the source, a water leak coming from a heater hose. The next morning I went looking for a place to get it fixed. My regular auto place was booked solid with Memorial Day weekend approaching. With several business trips coming up, it was important to get this fixed right away. I went to Yelp and found a couple of places to check out. The first stop, I received a quote and said they would need the car for three days. My next stop was Dave's in Auburn. Brandon took a look and said he could get it done today. His quote was SIGNIFICANTLY lower than the earlier quote I had received elsewhere. As I was trying to load Uber on my phone, he asked if I needed a loaner car. Yet another problem solved! The repair was done well within the time frame they gave me, and I had my car back that same afternoon. Charges matched the initial quote. Brandon followed up with a text three days later, asking if everything was working right. I couldn't be more satisfied. I will be back when the need arises.

I brought my car in because of a brake squeal and asked the shop to inspect the braking system and…read morelet me know what needed to be done. After about 4 hours, I received a call with a quote of nearly $1,600 to replace all four rotors and brake pads. I later called another shop and got an estimate for the exact same work at $1,200, which confirmed that their quote was on the very high side. I declined the work and went to pick up my car. I was told they did a minor cleaning of the brakes to reduce the noise, and I was charged a little over $100. Unfortunately, the brakes squeaked exactly the same as when I brought it in. I didn't make a big deal about that since the underlying issue wasn't addressed -- but when I got home, I noticed my hubcaps hadn't even been removed. That really made me question whether any work was actually performed at all. Between the high pricing, the ineffective "fix," and the suspicion that my car may have just sat in the shop while I still paid over $100, I will not be returning here. I would recommend that others get a second opinion before agreeing to any repairs at this shop.

I was hesitant since the Uber ride was $65 (one way!), but I took the chance and I'm glad I did. The service was both quick and friendly. It was also much less expensive than Bellevue shops, and they do offer a loaner if you book in advance, which I'll definitely do next time I visit!

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

I'm still under warranty with BMW and do like BMW Seattle, however, chose to give my business to the "little guy"; meaning a local, small business. Korey is the owner and actively involved in day to day operations; however, he has a competent staff, someone always answers the phone, and when my female skeptical mind questioned something that really didn't warrant questioning, they were patient in answering my questions. They know not every repair and tire outfit is honest out there and they genuinely wanted to make sure I completely understood the situation. Highly recommend!

Three days later I returned with a legit business card and he handed me a set of keys. I never forgot that moment. I sold my towing business a few years later and moved away. Now I have a successful larger company, I look back on that moment and many others where Perry taught me very valuable lessons in keeping an honest business. Cheers to you Perry.
